This month, a new collection of apartments will come to the market through St William at Courtyard Gardens, set within an exclusive gated community in the charming Surrey town of Oxted.
Hardwick House will be the final release of new homes at the development which was launched in May 2019 and is the last of three buildings that make up the scheme. Alongside the new range of one-, two- and three-bedroom apartments, St William will also unveil Courtyard Gardens’ first show home, designed by award-winning interior design practice Honky. Marking the first opportunity to step inside the new apartments, potential purchasers have the opportunity to experience the quality, design, and impressive views first-hand.
Courtyard Gardens presents a rare opportunity to purchase a new home in Oxted town centre and brings together the quality, convenience and low maintenance of a new build property with gated basement parking for all homes. Offering a blend of town and country living, homes are set around private central gardens, nestled at the foot of the North Downs and a three-minute walk to the railway station for quick and easy access into central London in just over half-an-hour. Once complete, Courtyard Gardens will deliver 111 residences, located in a secluded position moments from Oxted high street.
St William has brought a landscape-led design approach to Courtyard Gardens. Created by specialist architects, Charnwood Landscape Design, the gardens are formal in design with varied walkways and a series of pockets and enclaves – providing spaces for residents to socialise, relax and reconnect with nature – while a grand water feature greets residents on arrival. Alongside these gardens, the landscaping has also been thoughtfully designed to harbour natural wildlife, while a broad variety of plant species and trees selected to ensure colour and interest all year round.
Each apartment at Courtyard Gardens also benefits from private outside space, in the form of a balcony or terrace, some of which overlook the central gardens or the North Downs.
Echoing the same attention to detail found across the development, the apartments in Hardwick House are equipped for modern life with contemporary interiors throughout. High-specification kitchens are open to generous living and dining areas, which are flooded with natural light.
The architecture sensitively builds on Oxted’s classic townscape with traditional features including stone entrance pillars and ornate ironworks, giving a grand first impression. Positioned in a tranquil corner of the scheme, Hardwick House has been designed with a curved façade to maximise the green outlook for residents, whilst the penthouse apartments boast outstanding, far-reaching views.
With a prime location in the centre of the town, residents are just minutes from both its characterful high street and railway station, from which London Bridge can be reached in just 33 minutes and London Victoria in 39 minutes. Oxted’s excellent connectivity also extends to travel by road, with Gatwick Airport just 22 minutes away by car and the M25 10 minutes away.
Renowned for its strong community feel, the town’s array of independent shops, boutiques, restaurants and cafés are on the doorstep for residents. There is also an abundance of green space in close proximity, from Oxted’s own Master Park to the many walking trails, bridleways and cycling routes within the nearby North Downs – perfect for those looking for an outdoor lifestyle.
Surrey is also renowned for its impressive educational facilities, with a number of Ofsted ‘Outstanding’ rated schools and colleges in the local area, both state and independent, including St Mary’s Primary School, Limpsfield Church of England Infant School and Oxted Secondary School.
Phil Warman, sales and marketing director, St William, commented: “Courtyard Gardens is a rarity for Oxted, offering new homes in the heart of the town, just moments from the high street. Homes bring together the best of town and country: the quality and convenience of a new build home, surrounded by beautiful landscaping, with a thriving town on the doorstep and the capital within easy reach.”
Robert Leech, director, Robert Leech Estates Agents, added: “Oxted has been waiting for the redevelopment of this site for almost 50 years, and the launch of Hardwick House, the final building on the development, and unveiling of the first show home marks an exciting new chapter for Courtyard Gardens and the town - an opportunity to experience the scheme’s high-specification finishes, thoughtful layouts and contemporary design first-hand.”
The new show home is now available to view by appointment. Prices for Courtyard Gardens currently start from £437,000. Find out more from St William.
