Description

Enjoying a sensational c. 1.1 acre south facing plot, this wonderful home is ideal for families who enjoy the outdoors and are looking for an opportunity to extend/renovate or even redevelop (STPP) to their own design.

A covered porch opens into the wide and welcoming entrance hall which boasts attractive flooring and useful storage cupboards.

Folding doors separate the reception room from the magnificent conservatory, which offers stunning views and direct access to the terrace and rear garden beyond. The conservatory also links to the large dining room adjacent with its bay window also offering a lovely outlook over the garden and a magnificent antique French Pompadour fireplace.

On the first floor the generous principal bedroom has a superb view of the rear garden via the large bay window, built in wardrobes and an en suite shower room. Bedroom two benefits from an adjoining room used as a study space, but could easily be converted into a separate bedroom if required, and plenty of eaves storage. There are two further double bedrooms on this floor which share the use of the separate bath and shower rooms. On the top floor are two additional bedrooms and a plethora of useful storage in the eaves.

To the rear the south facing garden is simply beautiful. There is an expansive lawn area bordered by mature plants, trees and shrubs which provide wonderful colour during the spring and summer months. To the very rear of the garden is a woodland area which is perfect for children to explore. A terrace runs the full width of the house offering plenty of space for outdoor dining and entertaining. The seating area overlooks the full sized tennis court, ideal for the budding Wimbledon fan or for other outdoor activities. In addition there is a vegetable patch and greenhouse at either side of the garden. To the front the large carriage driveway offers parking for numerous vehicles, in addition to the garage, whilst the property benefits from views across the open field opposite and backs onto Esher Common woods.
