Description
Perched in grounds in excess of a third of an acre, the property is a magnificent period house dating to the reign of Queen Anne in the 18th century. The house has been beautifully preserved, boasting plenty of period charm and character. Upon entry, a spacious driveway and beautifully manicured gardens lead up to the manor. The period character of the home is evident from the outset, thanks to the facade's immaculate fenestration and the Ionic columns with a pulvinated frieze framing the main door. The main reception, adjoining dining room, and hall are splendid areas for entertaining, thanks to their generous proportions and exquisite fireplaces. The large kitchen is well-appointed with fitted cabinetry and is flanked by a charming breakfast room. The study is a discrete enclave, ideal for a work-from home setting. Five generously sized bedrooms and two bathrooms are laid out across the first floor, one of which has been used by the current owner as a day/TV room. There are two further bedrooms on the second floor, one of which is an ensuite and a further TV room. The house, a beautiful example of Georgian architecture, is rich in historic detailing -- from the intricate cornicing to the traditional fireplaces and ceiling high sash windows. Wooden floors run throughout, enhancing the elegance of the interiors. Additionally, a detached former coach house and stable has been converted to an open-plan living/bedroom space, bathroom and kitchenette, ideal for a guest house or staff accommodation. The former tack room offers great storage for garden equipment and has a WC for gardeners or tradespeople. Externally there is garaging for two cars and secure off-street gated parking for three more. The stunning south-west facing rear garden can be accessed from the reception and the dining room, providing a wonderful area for outdoor gatherings or playtime with children. Set in River Lane, a breath-taking backwater in the heart of leafy Petersham, residents are treated to the area's unparalleled bucolic charm while still enjoying the upscale benefits of the capital. River Lane Tennis Club, Richmond Golf Club and the Ham Polo Club are some of the most exclusive private members' clubs in the area. Richmond Park is a short walk away, and Central London can be accessed in under an hour.
