2 bedroom flat

Like fine wine, superior period buildings mellow and improve with age - this outstanding two bedroom apartment, housed within a prominent, attractive Victorian villa, on one of Richmond's pre-eminent roads, is a case in point.

There's a dignified presence to the entrance hall, an understated, attractively aged glamour harking back to its quietly grand heyday, that has you swept to its location on the first floor.

Cool, charismatic and graceful, thanks to its wooden floors, high ceilings and many large sash windows flooding the space with light, there's a jaunty airiness reminiscent of a Parisian atelier. Warm and welcoming, the space exudes the reassuring permanence and solidity of the building itself.

In a lovely little spot, the ample windows frame the pretty views front and rear marvellously, lending a strong sense of place and a real connection with its surroundings.
