Trevor Kearney, from estate agents Savills, said: ‘The architectural style of Deauville was done to stand out and be different in an area where a lot of the houses can look very similar to each other.

‘If you are spending £10 million you want your house to stand out and this just looks amazing.

‘The original developer just loved the French chateau style, he was incredibly well travelled and had built different houses in different styles around the world so the idea was to create something different.

‘Everybody loves that French chateau look – it’s basically your own castle. It’s really unique.

‘We’ve had more viewings come via Instagram than ever before because it’s so special and different that even if people weren’t necessarily looking for a house, they have seen the pictures and wanted it.

‘The current owners have been there over ten years, but the house has just gone through several years of refurbishment, everything is brand new internally.

‘It basically has the fabric of a brand new house but inside that traditional period architecture – not everyone wants something super contemporary on the outside.

‘But although it looks traditional, inside it has all the modern conveniences you would want.

‘St George’s Hill is known globally as the UK destination. It has full-time gated security in a prestigious location with 1,000 acres of beautiful countryside.’
