Seller Insight
We love modern properties and ease of living, so Charters Estate was ideal for us, as well as the privacy and security we have here. This apartment was ideal as it has 2 large terraces so we can enjoy being outside as much as inside.

This apartment is very spacious, we like that the main bedroom is away from the others so we and our children all have privacy and our own bathrooms. There’s plenty of storage too.

The Crestron smart home system is great, we can control everything from the wall units and an iPad, even when we’re away from home, so when we get back everything is as warm or as cool as we want it to be.

We love having the leisure facilities right here. We mostly use the pool and steam room, they’re just downstairs from us so they’re very convenient. The garden pavilion is great too, we’ve used it a lot for private parties. There’s an indoor pizza oven which makes catering really easy!

The grounds of the estate are wonderful, we have our own pond and there are so many beautiful trees. Late summer, we collect apples and blackberries for baking and we collect and dry the flowers from the Linden tree, they’re great as a cold remedy in the winter months. We also use the honey that’s cultured on the estate - it’s very cathartic to collect and use what we have here, far away from road pollution and with zero travel miles.

We’re directly between Sunningdale and Sunninghill, whichever town we go to we have a variety of shops and restaurants including a really good butcher and bakery – we value good quality food and there are so many choices nearby for that.
Virginia Water Park is just up the road, great for walks year round, it’s so beautiful there. We’re surrounded by nature here but still so close to London and the airport, we travel a lot so that balance is really important to us.

We’re now relocating and will miss the estate very much.

Location
Discretely located between Sunningdale and Sunninghill, Charters is within easy reach of London, Heathrow airport and the M25, M3 and M4 motorways. Closer to home, this area is renowned for superb restaurants, shops and world class recreational facilities including Wentworth Golf Club, Ascot race-course and Guards Polo Club. For lazy days at home, Charters has private leisure facilities available to residents, and a Concierge service capable of organising most anything you may desire.

History
Charters has a rich history dating from the Art Deco era and the renovation to create the apartments and the new Garden House and Court blocks has stayed true to that. Indeed, the original architect of the listed building consulted with the developers on the building and renovation works.

Commissioned by Frank Parkinson in the late 1930s, the centrepiece of Charters Estate followed the Art Deco principle of 'purposeful living’ and incorporated state of the art technology and finishes, some of which remain today.

Upon completion, Country Life lauded Charters as “One of the last great country houses to be built in Britain” and the “Blueprint for future country-house living”. Confirming its social status, Charters went on to play host to Sir Winston Churchill and the Duke and Duchess of Windsor, post abdication.

In the early 2000s Charters underwent a significant renovation to create the apartments and lifestyle we see today.

The grounds and apartments pay homage to the Art Deco era. The original garden columns, now Grade II listed remain, while the new building interiors are finished with polished steel and illuminated etched glass. Charters remains a great country estate to be enjoyed at the highest of today’s standards.

Privacy & Security
Charters is a high security estate. Cameras around the perimeter are monitored by 24-hour on-site security and only the Concierge can admit guests who are in turn escorted to their hosts’ apartment.

This is a home for people to relax from the stresses and attentions of the outside world.

Further details on security measures can be provided on request.
