Description

Built in the Dutch style in 1850-1852 and originally known as Park Villas West, this landmark row of houses is well known in Richmond for its uniformed design that has been beautifully preserved. A key feature of these houses and somewhat unique is the set-back position from the road behind gated entrances with parking for several vehicles. Entering the property the scale of the house and its majestic presence is obvious. Very rarely available, this outstanding family home is arranged naturally over four floors with the accommodation totalling over 3600sq.ft. and providing five very good sized bedrooms plus a study or sixth bedroom if preferred. As you enter the house you arrive at the impressive reception hall that continues to the vast living space that spans the entire length of the house on the upper ground floor; large windows offer views over the garden and to the front of the property. The lower floor provides abundant family living space with a very sociable kitchen and dining area with reclaimed York Stone flooring with underfloor heating. The kitchen features an AGA and elegant bespoke "Martin Moore' fittings. There is also a separate living room which is an ideal family/TV room or potentially a children's playroom. The upper floors provide five very well proportioned double bedrooms with four of these being very large doubles. The principal bedroom has en-suite facilities and fitted wardrobes and/or cupboards are installed in all bedrooms. The gorgeous garden has a westerly aspect and features a lower terrace as well as the lawned main garden, that is reached from the terrace, that is beautifully manicured with established shrubs, trees and well stocked flower beds. Queens Road is a very established road, lined with mature trees, that runs roughly north-south between Sheen Road and the very top of Richmond Hill by the junction with the landmark former Royal Star and Garter. Access to Richmond Park, with its 2500 acres of deer-inhabited national nature reserve parkland is available via the pedestrian-only gate at Cambrian Road, just 250m from the house, bringing the sense of the countryside and myriad leisure pursuits within a couple of minutes' walk. Richmond Hill Village is close by and reached within a pleasant walk where you can find popular pubs, cafes and a selection of shops. Terrace Gardens is a little further along Friars Stile Road with the iconic views towards the River Thames, Petersham Meadows and out to the Surrey Hills that were immortalised by the artist J.M W. Turner. Central Richmond is 0.8 mile (1.2km) and the Royal Botanical Gardens at Kew are 1.5 miles (2.4km) via the most direct walking route to Kew's Lion Gate. Schools in the area cater for all ages and there is a mixture of very good state and independent choices including Kings House, The Old Vicarage, The Vineyard School, Marshgate Primary School, Kew College and Sheen Mount Primary to name a few. International schools close by include The German School London in Petersham, The Swedish School in Barnes and the International School London (ISL) in Ealing.
