4 bed semi-detached house for sale

Shepperton Road, Staines-Upon-Thames, Middlesex TW18

A Grade II listed treasure in the heart of Laleham village.

Description
Nestled in the heart of Laleham, this exquisite Grade II listed Queen Anne residence dates back to circa 1730 and stands as a remarkable example of period architecture across three stately storeys. Rich in heritage and character, the home has been lovingly restored and thoughtfully modernised by its current owners, blending timeless elegance with contemporary comfort.

The property boasts a magnificent Queen Anne staircase, original wood panelling, and a built-in Bible box—evocative of its time as a school. Two of the reception rooms retain their original panelling, and all three feature working fireplaces and two still have the original shutters, adding to the home’s authentic charm.
Steeped in history, the house was once part of the Manor of Laleham and owned by the distinguished Lowther family prior to 1803. It later became a boarding school in 1824, with fascinating remnants still visible today, including markings where boys’ lockers once stood on the second floor and an original cast iron stove in what was formerly the servants’ quarters.

Renovations by the current owners have brought the home beautifully up to date. These include bespoke handmade kitchen cabinetry, a slate-tiled floor, new windows, a replaced Aga (2017), and a luxurious rain shower in the first-floor bathroom. Every detail has been carefully considered to preserve the home’s historic integrity while enhancing its livability.

This is a truly unique opportunity to acquire a landmark property that offers not only architectural significance but also a rich and storied past.
