Town House
This wonderful detached house is ideal for family living and has been immaculately renovated and maintained by the present owners to provide elegant, light and airy living accommodation throughout.
River House stands prominently behind a gated entrance and extends to approximately 7284 sq ft of well-proportioned living space and sits on a generous plot with direct access onto The River Grounds (part of the wider Trust Grounds) offering fabulous views over The River Thames, Old Deer Park and The Grounds.
Arriving at the property, there is a wide gated entrance and landscaped front garden providing ample private off street parking for numerous cars along with a large garage and excellent screening from mature trees and shrubs.
The accommodation in brief comprises a stunning reception hall with striking staircase, beautiful stained glass windows and immediate views through onto the River Grounds. The large reception hall provides an impressive space on entry into the property and leads to a magnificent reception room with great volume, coffered ceilings, sash windows and light. Also accessed from the hallway is a further reception room, currently used as a study/piano room with integrated oak book shelving. The stunning bespoke kitchen, with luxury fitted appliances, is a feature room of the house and in turn opens into a sitting and dining area positioned in the amazing glass extension to take full advantage of the fabulous River and Trust Garden views.
The lower ground floor, which is accessed via a glass staircase, comprises a number of well-proportioned reception rooms including a snug/playroom, which leads seamlessly into the garden, a further games room, an excellent gym room, utility/laundry room and a wine cellar with walk-in fridge and bar.
From the first floor landing there is a sumptuous principal bedroom suite with large walk-in wardrobe, feature fireplace and en-suite bathroom. A further large bedroom suite completes this floor.
The second floor comprises three further double bedrooms, a large office and two further beautiful bathrooms. From this floor, there are wonderful 'green' views towards the River and Old Deer Park in the distance. There is a very smart office on the 3rd floor which could easily be used as further bedroom accommodation or a cinema.
The garden to the rear has been landscaped to create a fantastic entertaining space, with a range of seating areas to relax and enjoy in the warmer spring/summer months. The direct access from the garden onto the several acres of The River Grounds is a very special feature indeed.
St Peters road forms part of The Pleasure Gardens, which are made up of three Trust Grounds (The River Grounds, The Lake Grounds and Avenue Grounds) and total around 12 acres, for the exclusive use of its residents, who hold numerous family events throughout the year
St. Peters Road is positioned within close proximity of Richmond town centre (0.7 mile) and many of the area's superb attractions such as Richmond Green (0.6 mile) and Richmond Park (1.4 mile), in addition to many excellent bars, restaurants and shops, along with the 2 cinemas and theatres.
Local transport links are excellent with frequent trains to central London via South West Trains from both Richmond (which is also on the underground District Line) and St. Margarets into Waterloo. The property is well-placed for access to the A316/M3, M4 and M25 motorways and Heathrow, approximately 10 miles.
Schools in the area include Kings House School, The Old Vicarage, Kew Green, leh (Lady Eleanor Hollis), St Catherine's, St Paul's, Hampton School, The Harrodian & Ibstock along with the soon to open Thomas's on Richmond Hill.
