The pool – now you see it ... Photo: Beauchamp Estates As if having a ballroom wasn’t fancy enough, the owners of this English mansion went a step further by hiding a swimming pool underneath theirs.
Located inside one of Surrey’s most prestigious private estates, St George’s Hill in Weybridge, the bespoke mansion presents state-of-the art luxury and jaw-dropping leisure facilities behind a classic facade.
The new owners of the stately home, known as Whitelands, will join a community that has been home to music legends including Tom Jones, Cliff Richard, Ringo Starr and John Lennon.

Lennon’s famous Kenwood mansion is just a short drive away.
The property boasts six bedrooms, five bathrooms, numerous dining and entertaining areas, a housekeeper’s living quarters, a six-car garage with a car turntable and a media room.
But that’s not all, the home also features state-of-the-art spa and wellbeing facilities including a gym, sauna, hydrotherapy pool, a Hammam (a Turkish steam room) and a hydraulic swimming pool.
The Hammam is covered in thousands of black tiles with dozens of blue lights to conjure up thoughts of the night sky. Photo: Beauchamp Estate
The only thing is, it’s hard to work out where the pool is at first glance. But enter the ballroom and the geometrically-tiled floor can be lowered, allowing the owner to tailor the pool depth for each occasion.
We’ll take two thanks.
