What the owners love :\r
\r
\"Our home for the past 15 years, every room is filled with light from the beautiful Georgian windows. We love our large garden, so peaceful as it backs onto allotments, you can only hear the birds singing! It's great to sit out on the top floor terrace in the summer. Our double lounge has held many parties and gatherings. We enjoy all the space and it's lovely to have a laundry room and a wine cellar. Also so convenient for public transport - 10 mins walk to Piccadilly line, 15 mins walk to Central/District/Elizabeth lines. We enjoy walking to our favourite coffee shop at the top of the road and strolling to our lovely local parks, Lammas and Walpole, with our dog every day”\r

What the agent says:\r
\r
This Four Storey Period Residence Will Hit The Right Notes With Families Looking For A Spacious Olde Ealing Home. The former home of BAFTA winning composer Christopher Gunning tastefully combines old and new, with a gorgeous south facing garden. \r
\r
BAFTA and Ivor Novello winner Christopher Gunning’s pedigree as a contemporary composer was hard to beat. And as you’d expect, his former home is a beautifully updated and tasteful period residence.\r
\r
It’s in a highly sought after and leafy Olde Ealing street that’s only a short stroll from the independent shops and cafés on St Mary’s Road. It’s set back from the already quiet road, with off street parking on the gravel drive and steps leading to the raised ground floor entrance.\r
\r
The ground floor is the social hub of this family home. The spacious double reception is an open plan living room and dining room, both have beautiful marble fireplaces, high ceilings and restored wooden floors.\r
\r
By way of contrast the kitchen / breakfast room feels thoroughly modern, thanks to the high gloss fitted units with integrated oven, grill and hob. Natural light floods in through the sash windows at the front and back, with a glimpse of the gorgeous gardens below at the rear.\r
\r
There’s plenty to be enjoyed on the lower ground floor and it's not life boats! It’s a versatile space that combines practicality with play - having a utility room and a playroom/games room which leads out to a patio seating area.\r
\r
And the self contained studio will be especially appealing if you have a relative living with you or a teenager looking for independence. It has everything needed for a home-within-a-home. There's a spacious double bedroom with access to a patio, a kitchenette and an ensuite shower room. There’s even separate access from the front, meaning you can come and go without needing to enter the main house.\r
\r
The first floor hosts three, enormous double bedrooms, all of which could act as the principal for different reasons. The one at the rear has views over the gorgeous garden and clever access to a stunning jack & jill bathroom. Another option could be where a fabulous four-poster bed is situated and where bespoke built-in wardrobe storage is abundant. \r
\r
The top floor, or 'Penthouse Suite' as it is affectionately known by the current owners' daughters, is home to two further large double bedrooms, along with a smart terrace - perfect for taking in the rooftop views with a morning coffee - lastly, there is an expansive, luxurious, four-piece bathroom.\r
\r
The private, secluded and tastefully landscaped south facing garden, is of detached house proportions and will be perfect for hosting garden parties or letting the kids play out in the sun. It backs onto the allotments at the rear, so you're not overlooked at all. \r
\r
This imposing double-fronted property is already a spacious and versatile family home but it could be further improved. Plans have previously been approved for a superb three storey rear extension and a side extension which could transform the living space.\r
\r
Ranelagh Road is in a popular pocket of Olde Ealing. It’s a quiet street but just around the corner from local shops, pubs and cafés on St Mary’s Road. You’re spoiled for choice when it comes to grabbing your morning coffee or sourcing your weekend sourdough loaf. Parperback & Pulp on St Mary’s Road or Tetote Factory Japanese bakery are a couple of local favourites.\r
\r
You’ll find all the big name retailers and restaurants in Ealing Broadway. Alternatively, you could shop closer to home and stay independent by stocking up on seasonal fruit and veg at The Ealing Grocer and eating out at The New Inn or The Rose & Crown - both are nearby with lovely gardens.\r
\r
There is genuine choice when it comes to schooling, with multiple options for all age groups, all enjoying exemplary reputations. \r
\r
You’ll love spending time in your garden but if you also like getting out for dog walks, picnics or training for the Ealing Half-Marathon, you’re spoiled for choice with Gunnersbury Park, Walpole Park and Lammas Park all close by. \r
\r
Whether you’re attracted by the chance to follow in the footsteps of a modern musical icon or the spacious family friendly accommodation on offer, if you like the sound of what’s on offer contact us to arrange a private viewing.\r
