Hydon Ridge
Hydon Ridge is an enchanting family home that was originally constructed in the year 1911. Positioned at the serene end of Feathercombe Lane, this remarkable residence enjoys an elevated position that offers a beautiful outlook of the surrounding landscape. The house is artfully designed to face almost exactly southwest, allowing sunlight to cascade into every room, creating an atmosphere that is both warm and inviting.

Over the years, Hydon Ridge has been lovingly enhanced with thoughtful additions that preserve its historic charm while providing modern comforts. The billiard room, which was added just one year after the original construction, offers a perfect space for family gatherings and friendly competitions. This beautiful room opens onto the veranda which takes full advantage of the outlook to the rear of the house. The dining room and hall also open onto this veranda which allows for a free-flowing entertainment space.

One of the most captivating aspects of Hydon Ridge is its proximity to Hydon’s Ball, which proudly ranks among Surrey’s top ten highest points. This stunning natural area is owned and maintained by the National Trust, providing a haven for nature lovers and outdoor enthusiasts alike. At the pinnacle of Hydon’s Ball, visitors are greeted by a serene stone seat dedicated to Octavia Hill, one of the esteemed founders of the National Trust. Installed in 1915, this seat offers a tranquil spot for reflection and a moment to appreciate the breath-taking vistas that unfold in every direction.

Gardens and grounds
Adding to the allure of Hydon Ridge are the gardens and grounds, which were designed by the illustrious garden designer Gertrude Jekyll. Her renowned artistry is evident in the vibrant landscapes that envelop the home, creating an idyllic setting for family fun on the lawns, or simply soaking in the beauty of nature. The swimming pool is positioned on the level lawn to the North East of the house and the tennis court sits proudly to the West. The gardens and grounds extend to 12.87 acres and encompass woodland as well as the formal gardens.
