A Surrey mansion with indoor and outdoor swimming pools, a tennis court, gym and cinema plus the ‘best view in Britain’ has gone on sale for £8.75million.
Spur Point in Haslemere also has its own bar as well as a wine cellar and tasting room – where you can enjoy a tipple in style.
The grand nine-bedroom house sits on an elevated position on a hill with south-facing views over the rolling hills of the South Downs National Park.
Spur Point in Haslemere in Surrey was converted last year into a modern ‘superhome’. Pictured is the front of the house with a large terrace overlooking a swimming pool and tennis court
The mansion, which is on sale for £8.75million, has an airy open-plan kitchen on the ground floor with glass doors to make the most of the view
On the ground floor there is an entrance hall, an open-plan kitchen and breakfast room, a dining room, family room, drawing room, (pictured) music room, study and a snug
The games room includes a pool table and cinema screen, as well as its own bar. Overall, the property has 13,539 sq ft of living space
Trevor Kearney, from estate agents Savills, said the view is the best he has ever seen from a house in the UK.
The current owners demolished the previous property and built the modern family home in 2017.
It has a state-of-the-art system to control security, heating and lighting, with integrated speakers and video throughout and night vision security cameras.
Air source heat pumps absorb heat from the outside air to heat the house and provide hot water.

The master bedroom has a large dressing room and ‘his and hers’ ensuites, five more bedrooms and three bathrooms.
There is a two-bedroom staff suite within the house and an annexe with a bedroom and living area above the double garage – which would be perfect for staff or guests.
The current owners demolished the previous property and built the modern family home at the centre of rolling gardens in 2017
All the leisure facilities are on the lower ground floor with the wine cellar and tasting room, which has three swivel stools made from cork

There is an indoor swimming pool next to the gym to allow you to still do lengths if the weather is too cold outside
All the leisure facilities are on the lower ground floor with the wine cellar and tasting room, heated indoor swimming pool, spa with a sauna and steam room, gym and the ‘club room’ with bar, pool table and a cinema designed to the highest audio and video specification.
The house sits in a plot of almost two acres.
Mr Kearney said: ‘It truly is the best view, and the most uninterrupted view, that I have ever seen from a house in the UK. It totally blows you away.
‘There was an old unmodernised house there and the owners built the sort of 2020 superhome with an indoor pool, outdoor pool, tennis court, wine cellars.
‘It’s the perfect lockdown house – it’s got absolutely everything in it, it’s smashing.
‘Haslemere is a lovely spot but in that part of Surrey you don’t get many homes like this, not as much as you would in north Surrey.
‘So the owner has done well building that super-home in an area where you get that magnificent view, it’s the best of both worlds.’
The house sits in a plot of almost two acres. The south-facing view from the house is overwhelmingly of countryside, with very few other properties in sight
Trevor Kearney, from estate agents Savills, said the view from the property is the best he has ever seen from a house in the United Kingdom

Haslemere – where the house is situated – is the most southerly town in Surrey and 12 miles southwest of Guildford

The dining room looks out onto the terrace and the spectacular views of the surrounding South Downs National Park
Unsurprisingly, snapping up the property would bring you plenty of wealthy neighbours.
‘Haslemere is rumoured to have the most first class train tickets into London Waterloo,’ Mr Kearney said. ‘It’s probably the furthest out sensible commute, it takes an hour.
‘You feel like you’re in the country but you’re only an hour from London.
‘If you’re looking to move out of London, that is the price of a great apartment in Chelsea, but here you get all that super-house with swimming pools and land.’
