The Property

On entering the house, one steps into a spacious vestibule that leads to the double aspect reception room, which benefits from a marble effect fireplace with wood surround and marble hearth, which creates a focal point to the seating area. The dining room has a rear aspect with views over the rear garden and access to the rear patio via a set of French doors.

The kitchen/breakfast room is rear-facing and offers a range of wood wall and base units, with integrated appliances, twin sinks and tiled splash back. There is access to the practical utility room, where there are further storage cupboards, a sink, space and plumbing for washing machine and dryer and access to the rear patio.
From the entrance hall, double doors lead to the front aspect family room, benefitting from a large bay window with an encased radiator below, two built-in cloaks cupboards and access to the kitchen/breakfast room and the useful utility room.

There is also a front-aspect study and a guest cloakroom.

An easy rising staircase leads to the first floor level, where the principal bedroom suite, four further bedrooms and a family bathroom are located.

The double-aspect principal bedroom suite offers views to both front and rear gardens, and boasts a set of built-in wardrobes, in addition to a walk-in dressing room, which also benefits from having natural daylight, and is fully equipped with hanging, shelves and drawers for storage. There is also a fully tiled en suite shower room, with a wash basin, WC and a fully enclosed shower cubicle.

Three of the bedrooms benefit from built-in wardrobes. The fully tiled family bathroom offers a wash basin with vanity unit below, WC and panelled bath. Loft access is from the landing.
From the principal suite there is an easy rising staircase leading into the sixth bedroom, located on a second floor. This room offers a bright space for a teenager’s bedroom or study area. There is an en suite toilet, ample storage and it benefits from being triple aspect with a dormer to the rear, a Velux to the side and a window to the front, so masses of light penetrate the space making it bright and airy.

Outside

The rear garden is accessed from the dining room, with French doors leading to the full-width patio, which provides ample outdoor seating area. The rest of the garden is mainly laid to lawn, with a plethora of mature trees and bushes that go round the property and to the front. The house is set well back from the road, with lawn areas interspersed with shrubs and mature trees creating the space to appreciate the imposing height of the property.

Both Kingston and Wimbledon have excellent shopping facilities, from department stores housing concessions found in famous West End streets and specialised boutiques to a wide range of restaurants meeting the palates from across the world. New Malden a mere walking distance offers a selection of restaurants and cafés and is great for the immediate needs.

The A3 road offers fast access to central London and both Gatwick and Heathrow airports via the M25. The nearest train station at New Malden is also within walking distance and the 57 bus runs a 24/7 service along nearby Coombe Lane West to Wimbledon from which there are frequent services to London Waterloo with its underground links throughout the city.

The area offers a wide range of recreational facilities including five golf courses, tennis and squash clubs and many leisure centres. The 2,360 acres of Richmond Park, an area of outstanding natural beauty, are easily accessed from Kingston Gate and Ladderstile Gate. The park provides a picturesque setting in which to picnic, go horse riding, jogging or just take a leisurely walk. Theatres at Wimbledon, Kingston and Richmond are also popular alternatives to the West End.
