Richmond Hill, Richmond, Surrey, TW10

A wonderfully situated family home of great charm and period integrity

Description

Nestling idyllically within an important and exquisite landmark terrace this fine Grade II listed family home is a wonderful example of early Victorian architecture. Internally this period integrity is also beautifully intact with features of note including gorgeous fireplaces, operational box window shutters, beautiful cornicing and a most elegant staircase.

The principal floors have fantastic ceiling heights and the generous sash hung windows afford an excellent flow of natural light. The configuration of the accommodation provides superbly well for both everyday family life and more formal entertaining, with a self contained lower ground floor (with its own patio garden) offering great flexibility for generational living. Also of particular note is the exquisite first floor double aspect drawing room that has floor to ceiling sash windows opening onto a delightful south west facing canopied balcony - providing a perfect spot to enjoy the evening sun. The house also boasts stunning views towards London from the upper floors.

There is a charming walled rear garden that has well established borders and leads onto the garden room / garage. Whilst being a very rare Richmond asset the double garage has plenty of natural light from both its skylights and its patio doors that open onto the garden - and could therefore make a fantastic work from home space, gym or teenage den, if so required. There is also space to park a car in front of the garage. To the front of the house there is a further paved garden that faces south west and is set behind beautiful wrought iron railings.

Location

The house occupies a wonderful position on the lower slopes of the much acclaimed Richmond Hill, within just a few hundred metres of the sophisticated shops and restaurants that Richmond has to offer. 'The Hill' has a lovely village atmosphere with its delightful array of boutiques, cafes and more specialist stores.

Richmond Park and a particularly scenic stretch of the River Thames can also be found within just a few hundred metres, offering ideal retreats from the hubbub of daily life.
