Property description
An exquisite double fronted detached Victorian family home with views over and direct access onto The Lake Grounds of The St Margarets Pleasure Gardens
Description
This handsome red brick double fronted Victorian home is principally arranged over three floors, providing extensive and well balanced accommodation that is superbly configured for both everyday family life and more formal entertaining. As you enter the house you are greeted by a beautiful reception hall with an exquisite terrazzo floor. The striking room proportions are further emphasised by the generous ceiling heights. There is an excellent flow of natural light, afforded by the gorgeous open aspects and large windows. The house has been tastefully refurbished by our client, who has been extremely careful to not only retain but also enhance the wonderful period integrity. Other features of particular note include a superbly appointed bespoke kitchen which has direct access onto the rear terrace, gorgeous fireplaces, an elegant staircase, extensive gated parking and a delightful well established garden that leads directly onto The Lake Grounds.
Location
The house occupies an enviable position within and overlooking the beautiful Lake Grounds of the St Margarets Pleasure Gardens (also known as the Trust Grounds). The Lake Grounds are the largest of three grounds (the other two being The River Grounds and The Avenue Grounds) that total around 12 acres, for the exclusive use of its residents. All three grounds feature a seasonal tennis court and there is a fabulous social side to them with annual events such as a children's sports day, a sixties night, a bonfire night, carol singing, a barn dance and a jazz picnic.
With this semi rural backdrop it is difficult to believe that you are within approximately 10 miles of Hyde Park Corner. Just a short riverside stroll over Richmond Lock or Twickenham Bridge you are in Richmond and within a few hundred metres of its sophisticated yet charming shops and restaurants. Richmond train station (within about a mile) provides a rapid and direct service into London Waterloo, as well as the District line tube and overland to Stratford, via North London. Local schools are considered amongst the best in the country.
Square Footage: 4,398 sq ft
