6 Bed Terraced House For Sale Richmond Hill, Richmond, TW10

An exquisitely designed family home with exceptional volume and breath taking views

\rDescription

With superb entertaining spaces and generous bedroom accommodation this house offers a great balance between family living and more formal entertaining. The specification, thoughtfulness and depth of quality of the renovation is truly something to behold. Careful attention has been placed on creating very light open spaces, assisted by an abundance of glass throughout the house. In particular a striking triple volume light-well rises up from the garden level, via a spectacular sculptured staircase.

Most of the principal rooms (to the front of the house) enjoy spectacular views over the River Thames, Petersham Meadows and the Thames Valley beyond. This aspect remains the only English landscape view to be protected by an Act of Parliament. Since the late 17th century artists have been attracted by the panoramic prospect of the meandering River Thames, verdant woods and meadows offered by this elevated position, perhaps best captured by JMW Turners incredible watercolours. Remarkably the house also boasts fabulous far reaching views to the rear too, north east towards the city of London.

To the raised ground floor there is a magnificent double reception room with views towards Petersham Meadows and the river, as well as a further sitting room/library with wonderful floor to ceiling windows overlooking the garden. At garden level there is a stunning kitchen/family area which opens onto the beautiful walled rear garden, and a bedroom suite that is currently used as a gym but would make an ideal nanny suite due to its location within the house and the separate lower floor access.

The elegant master suite occupies the entire first floor and again has spectacular river views. It has a large, luxurious bathroom with a bridge linking the bedroom and bathroom to the dressing/sitting room. There are four further double bedrooms and two bathrooms arranged over the second and third floors. Outside there is secure gated off-street parking and a imaginatively landscaped walled garden that provides a wonderful outside entertaining area and rear access onto Terrace Lane behind.

Location

The house is superbly situated at the summit of Richmond Hill, within just a few hundred metres of both Richmond Park (with its 2300 deer inhabited acres) and the sophisticated shops and restaurants of the town centre. Whilst even closer at hand the local shops at Friars Stile Road cater well for day to day needs and have a lovely village atmosphere.

Just across the road are the beautiful Terrace Gardens, providing an ideal retreat from the hubbub of daily life and a shortcut to a particularly scenic stretch of the River Thames.

Richmond train station has a rapid and direct service into London Waterloo, as well as the District line tube and overland to Stratford, via north London.

Local schools enjoy an excellent reputation and are considered amongst the best in the country.
