The entrance hall opens to three reception spaces arranged across the ground floor. Two bay-fronted rooms sit to the front of the house with an array of period features, while a third overlooks the rear garden. The bespoke kitchen adjoins a separate dining room, with doors from both spaces leading outside. A guest WC completes this floor.

On the lower-ground floor, a large central family room provides space for relaxation, accompanied by a gym, sauna, steam and shower room and a utiiity space.

Four well-proportioned double bedrooms and a study are arranged across the first floor, alongside three bathrooms, two of which are ensuite. The principal suite occupies the entire second floor and includes two walk-in wardrobes, an ensuite bathroom and access to a private roof terrace.

Outside, a gated driveway provides off-street parking. The mature rear garden extends to approximately 40 ft and is planted with established trees and shrubs, creating a wonderfully private setting.

A gate at the far end of the garden leads directly into the Lake Grounds, also known as the Trust Grounds. Reserved exclusively for residents, these 12 acres of maintained communal gardens include grass tennis courts and host events throughout the year, from summer sports and a barn dance to Halloween celebrations and Christmas carols.

The house lies on Ailsa Road, a quiet residential street in Twickenham; both St Margaret’s and Richmond are known for their vibrant atmospheres, excellent schools, and strong sense of community. Local amenities, transport links, and the River Thames are all within easy reach.
