Viewing is highly recommended by Gascoigne-Pees.The Ottershaw Park Estate was first built in April 1761 when a barrister, Thomas Sewell bought Ottershaw Farm andcleared it to build the first Ottershaw Park mansion. In 1910 the millionaire Friedrich Eckstein demolished the oldmansion and replaced it with the present building, designed by Niven & Wigglesworth. Over the years as well as being aprivate estate to a succession of wealthy owners, it has been the site of a hospital during WW1, and the mansion leasedas offices and laboratories to The Vacuum Oil Company during WW2. After the war it was sold to Susan Schintz, thedaughter of a Swiss nitrates millionaire. She was forced to sell after losing much of her inheritance, and much of it wasacquired by the Ottershaw Park Investment Company (opic) which planned to develop the rim of the estate forhousing. In 1948 Surrey County Council established Ottershaw School and classes were held in the Mansion block andThe Bothy. The school prospered until 1980 when it closed due to financial constraints and in 1982 the developersDeltaHome converted the mansion and other buildings into the desirable private gated estate it is today.All homeswithin the estate benefit from communal use of the grounds and tennis courts.
