Exploring the Most Expensive Homes in South England
A selection of the most exclusive properties in the counties of Gloucestershire, West Sussex, Devon, Berkshire, and Hampshire are currently on the market, offering a glimpse into the world of grand architecture, significant land, and premium amenities.
In Devon, Ebberly House, a Classical Grade II*-listed home with nine bedrooms, stands proudly in the countryside. The property boasts 249 acres of gardens and grounds, featuring a Victorian pleasure garden, small stream, walled garden, waterfalls, lakes, and a swimming pool. The asking price for Ebberly House is £6,950,000.
Meanwhile, Peasemore House, located in the village of Peasemore, Berkshire, is another impressive offering. Originally built as a great hall for Poughley Priory in the late 13th century, Peasemore House has been passed down through the same family for the past 150 years. The property, which has seven bedrooms and 12 acres of gardens and grounds, is available for £7,500,000 via Knight Frank.
In Amport, Hampshire, both a large five-bedroom family home and a two-bedroom apartment within a Grade II*-listed country house are for sale via Savills. The asking price for the family home is yet to be disclosed, while the apartment is listed for £2,650,000. The gardens of the property are notable for their amazing planting and fun water features.
Moving to Gloucestershire, Upper Swell Farm, listed jointly by Savills and Knight Frank with a guide price of £7,750,000, is a grand estate located near Stow-on-the-Wold and Moreton-in-Marsh. This prestigious Cotswold property features extensive grounds typical of its class.
The county's premium listings also include various detached houses and smallholdings priced around £1.25 million to over £3 million. These properties often have multiple bedrooms (ranging from 3 to 10+), large plots of land, and rural or scenic views.
Knight Frank’s broader UK portfolio features historic or characterful properties such as an Edwardian detached family house in Romsey, Hampshire, with mature gardens dating back to 1895, and a Grade II* listed residence on 38 acres in Ludlow, Shropshire, available for the first time in 50+ years.
In Berkshire and Devon, listings by Knight Frank show desirable detached houses and apartments, often in sought-after towns. These properties tend to have modern updates and convenient locations but do not reach the multi-million-pound scale of major Cotswold estates.
High-value country homes across these areas also include elegant renovated farmhouses, mansions with lake views, and properties set on large acreage (e.g., 38 to 80+ acres), often with exceptional views, character features like stained glass cupolas, and proximity to golf courses and beaches.
