A handsome 'double-fronted' Victorian property situated in a popular crescent in the heart of East Molesey (Kent Town) Conservation area, moments to Hampton Court Station, beautiful Riverside and the Village area of Bridge Road.
On the market for first time in over 40 years, this charming, well maintained, period home requires some internal modernisation but also provides excellent scope to enhance the available living if space (STPP) if required. Available with immediate vacant possession.
For those who appreciate Victorian architecture this property is a feast for the eyes. The front elevation is particularly attractive with prominent front gable and broad stone steps leading up to an arched storm-porch with decorative pillars and key-stones, set against distinctive red brick-work.
Internally the accommodation is arranged naturally over three floors - the main living space spread laterally over two main levels - ( total floor area extending to over 2,000 sq ft / 191m2 ). This includes a vast basement room (700 sq. ft) with self contained front and garden access, currently used as useful storage / utility / work space, but with little imagination, it could easily be converted to primary living space forming part of the main house.
This lovely home is full of character, boasting high ceilings throughout, and with many other original embellishments to include stained and leaded glass window (front entrance door), plaster moulded cornicing, stripped wood doors and floorboards, and six ornate fireplaces to principle rooms, each enjoying a distinct design.
The ground floor consists of an impressive receiving hall - measuring some 17' x 10' - with timber panel ceiling of lattice design. There are two further independent reception rooms, the front room featuring a bright bay window (lovely morning sunshine), whilst the rear room with its picture sash window overlooks the rear garden. Adjacent to the rear reception room, a kitchen / breakfast room provides access to the garden.
At first floor level there is generous galleried landing with access to three good-sized double bedrooms. There is a family bathroom and a separate W.C with walk-in closet / airing cupboard. With some re-configuration this space could be combined to make a large family bathroom or alternatively turned into an ensuite shower room to the front bedroom. To complete the first floor accommodation a loft hatch from the landing with pull-down loft ladder, leads to a cavernous attic space, which is ripe for further development, if necessary.
Externally, an established rear garden enjoys good privacy, whilst the front garden has purpose built steps leading to the lower ground level, which opens up alternative possible uses of this space.
Location: In terms of lifestyle an extremely convenient location with everything you need literally on the doorstep. The River Thames (1 min walk), Village area of Bridge Road with independent shops and restaurants (1 min), and Hampton Court station (2 mins). Superb private and state schools nearby, central London approx. 35 mins away and many open acres of royal park parkland together with the grounds of Historic Hampton Court Palace holding annual festivals and events, are all easily accessible.
