5 bedroom terraced house for sale

1960s modernist townhouse located in an exclusive and sought after riverside development in Teddington. Communal swimming pool, tennis court and gardens. No onward chain.

Description

A rare opportunity has arisen to purchase a luxurious waterfront modernist townhouse enviably located in a private riverside development in Teddington, South-West London. The property boasts a private mooring and access to communal heated swimming pool, communal tennis court and landscaped established gardens. The Thameside Development is located on the River Thames (non-tidal) within close proximity of The renowned Lensbury and Teddington Lock.

This exquisite and extensively refurbished and remodelled 1960s modernist townhouse has been meticulously and sympathetically enhanced to make best use of clean lines, texture, space, light and aspect making this remarkable home a must see house.

Externally, the property benefits from a private driveway providing off-street parking (with electric car charging point), additional on-street parking is available.

“Thameside is an interesting example of 1960s townhouse typology, with split-levels, a central transverse staircase and its own access to a dockside mooring off the Thames. The front of the house faces south and gets the sun, while the rear of the house gets the views over the water. Our intervention opened-up the front and rear living spaces to create one large open-plan first floor living area on two levels enjoying the best of both outlooks, with a semi-transparent bookshelf unit alongside the transverse stair acting as a dividing element. On the third floor we enclosed a rarely-used roof terrace to make a new living room with views to the river and access to the front roof terrace via new glazed doors. These light-touch changes kept the mid-20th century feel of the house while bringing a 21st century sensibility (and practicality) to one of the very few modernist riverside homes in London.”
