Baron Sir John Henry Schroder originally purchased The Dell Estate during the 1880’s, extending his mansion and lavishing a great deal of care and attention to his gardens. Many fruits and plants were grown in large greenhouses, including the orchids that later became synonymous with The Dell. In the late 1880’s, James Pulham & Son was commissioned to design and build a Rock and Water Garden. This resulted in the creation of two waterfalls and ponds that were linked with an artificial stream meandering alongside a ‘Pulhamite’ rock-lined path. A large castellated water tower was also built to store water that was pumped up from the neighbouring valley.

For ease of maintenance, the ponds have now been contained and the stream has been converted to a dry river bed. The unusual and rare rocks are still in place as are the waterfalls, which are now activated by remote controlled pumps. Although the greenhouses are no longer there, the impressive water tower remains, though it is no longer functional. In 1987, the ‘Schroder’ mansion was demolished and nine exclusive mews style townhouses were built in its place.

The Dell is a small community of like-minded people and is located in a gated, secluded position on the village’s premier road. It is only 100 metres or so from the Bishopsgate entrance of Windsor Great Park and its northern boundary adjoins the famous Deer Park. The grounds extend to approximately 10 acres and, in addition to the Water Gardens, have well-manicured lawns, numerous specimen rhododendrons and trees together with other shrubs and plants, all for the quiet enjoyment and exclusive use of its residents. overview


No.9 enjoys the largest and most secluded plot at The Dell. Thanks to the vision of the current owner, it has been sympathetically extended and totally refurbished to the highest standards providing the ultimate in luxury living. The interior, which oozes elegance and quality, was designed by Alexander James, an organisation often used by the rich and famous in the Wentworth area. No expense has been spared as it was the vendor’s plan to downsize and retire to this property, though circumstances have since changed. The property would probably suit those with a similar plan or a professional couple who like the security of a ‘lock up & go’ and/or second home.

Virtually every conceivable thing has been considered. Whilst initially a 4 bedroom home over 3 floors, the owner changed the configuration to achieve 3 magnificent bedroom suites, the master of which occupies the whole of the first floor that can also be accessed via a lift. This suite has a spacious bedroom with large flat screen TV and balcony access, an amazing dressing room with laundry-chute and a luxury bathroom with built in radio, TV, spa, steam and shower room. All rooms are protected by a fire sprinkler system and most rooms have at least two LED lighting zones, hard-wired Ethernet/Telephone sockets and TV points. An 8 extension Panasonic business telephone system has also been installed.

The property also benefits from a multi-room music system that can be controlled by an iPad/Smartphone as well as the audio keypads. It also has an external/internal digital CCTV system that can be viewed world-wide via the same iPad/Smartphone. The Italian styled Metris kitchen is the epitome of luxury with internal lighting to cupboards and drawers and a Lutron controlled lighting system for numerous lighting/mood settings. We have spoken here of just a few of the improvements; a complete list can be provided on request, though we would thoroughly recommend a viewing to fully appreciate the quality and ambience of this magnificent home. Englefield Green has become one of the most sought after locations outside of London and is synonymous with luxury housing. Although in close proximity to the capital, Englefield Green maintains a rural feel with many surrounding parks and open spaces that offer picturesque walks and cycle rides. The village benefits from excellent transport links to London and the south east with easy access to the M25, M4 and M3. London Heathrow Airport (10 mins) and London Gatwick (35mins) are also within easy reach. Egham train station provides regular service to London Waterloo (35/40 mins).

Schooling within the area is exceptional with many renowned private schools, such as Eton, Bishopsgate, Wellington College, St Mary’s, Hurst Lodge and St Johns Beaumont. In addition, there are two local international schools, ACS in Egham and TASIS in Thorpe. Englefield Green is very lucky to be blessed with such a choice.

Sporting facilities are numerous in the area with many golf and country clubs, horse racing at Windsor and Ascot and polo at Smiths Lawn in Windsor Great Park.
