Description

A stunning prominent and very much admired period detached house (4,445 sq ft), with immense character and charm, providing unparalleled, expansive, flexible and brilliantly arranged family accommodation over four floors and also having the added benefit of a self-contained nanny / staff accommodation, with its own entrance.

The property is set well back from the road in this much coveted and highly regarded west Putney location, which leads on to Putney common and there is ample gated secure parking and a handsome approach up gentle steps to the front door.

The hall is wide and welcoming and leads into the principle reception rooms on the raised ground floor. These have exceptionally high ceilings and include:

A large reception room to the front of the property, with the impressive fireplace forming a wonderful focal point and pentagonal windows giving fine views out to the front and the mature Magnolia tree which is simply stunning when in bloom.

There is also a large dining room to the front with its large windows giving an in incredible outlook of the same and these form a fabulous first impression and provide a huge amount of light.

To the rear of the property is the large kitchen / breakfast / family room which is very much the hub of the house and features the bespoke Martin Moore Kitchen with its timeless design and high end appliances. Impressive full height sliding doors give fabulous views over the beautifully landscaped and manicured west facing garden and the room is flooded with light even on the gloomiest of days. There are also steps down to a further family / snug / tv area, and this has both level views and access to the mature walled west facing garden.

The garden level of the property also provides expansive and flexible accommodation, as follows:

A study, again with the pentagonal windows being a wonderful feature, a further reception room / play room, or bedroom six, according to your needs and the self contained nanny / staff studio room, alluded to above. This has its own entrance, to the side of the property and also a useful en suite shower room. It has previously been used very successfully as both a home office and a gym over the years. In short, a multipurpose space, in the truest sense of the word and a very useful adjunct to this floor and its accommodation.

A plant / utility room and understairs storage and a further entrance round off accommodation at this level.
At first floor level, the sumptuous principle bedroom suite is to the rear of the house, and has a super outlook over the garden, being particularly private and there is a further large double bedroom suite to the front of the house, again with sumptuous en suite facilities.

At half landing level there is a useful additional cloakroom and the top floor has a particularly voluminous feel to it by virtue of the large windows and high ceilings and the three large double bedrooms are very well served by the large well appointed family bathroom, which has both a bath and separate shower. Again, ideal for family living.

The front and rear gardens are very special, being beautifully planted and the rear garden is also very secure, by virtue of its high wall and secure gate. It is mature and well bedded in: mainly laid to lawn, but with excellent planting and shape to it and is also a good size, being unusually wide.

In short, a simply stunning house, ready for its next custodians, having been brilliantly updated and maintained by the current owners who have lived here very happily since 2005.
