House For Sale £5,000,000
An exquisitely renovated and architecturally striking double fronted Edwardian family home of beautiful proportions
Description
Mayleigh House is a handsome Edwardian double fronted family home which has a distinctive red brick facade, relieved by tall sash hung windows, two pretty gables, a delightful first floor veranda and a charming entrance porch that you approach via a beautiful wide staircase of Portland stone. The house is well set back from the road by virtue of its generous front garden, providing secure gated parking for several cars. Whilst to the rear of the house there is charming west facing walled garden with established borders and a large paved terrace that provides an ideal area for alfresco entertaining. The room proportions are magnificent and further emphasised by the wonderful ceiling heights (to the middle two floors in particular). There is an excellent flow of natural light, afforded by the large windows and lovely open aspects to the front and rear (you can see into Richmond Park from the upper floors).
The house has been exquisitely and tastefully renovated with enormous attention to detail. Whilst future proofing the property our clients have been meticulous in preserving its period integrity. Period features include ornate ceiling mouldings, fireplaces, deep skirting and a most elegant staircase. The stunning Mark Wilkinson kitchen features a five oven gas Aga, two dishwashers and Gaggenau fridge, freezer and wine fridges. Other features of particular note include five superbly appointed bathrooms, a fabulous temperature and humidity controlled wine cellar, an incredible principal bedroom suite that spans the full depth of the house, underfloor heating to the ground floor and all the bathrooms, new (in 2022) electric blinds, new (in 2021) hardwood double glazed and sound proofed windows throughout, a fully updated (in 2022) Savant control system for audio and video and a fully programmable Lutron lighting system. There is also Virgin high speed fibre connected, with all rooms hard wired.
External features include and an electric vehicle charging point, a fully irrigated and newly designed garden, external lighting, Savant smart gate control and camera, rear garden access from Sandpits Road and secondary front door access to the lower ground floor.
Location
The house is superbly located in the heart of Petersham, a leafy village between Royal Richmond Park and a particularly scenic stretch of The River Thames that was once a favourite hunting ground for the Sovereigns of the 17th Century.
The sophisticated yet charming shops and restaurants of Richmond are within just one mile (via a picturesque riverside walk) and Hyde Park Corner is within approximately 11 miles. Whilst immediately to hand The Petersham Nurseries and The Dysart Arms are held in high gastronomic esteem. Richmond train station offers a rapid and direct service into London Waterloo, as well as the District line tube and overland to Stratford, via north London.
The A316 can be found within approximately 2 miles and adjoins the M3 at Sunbury or central London in the other direction, via the A4. The M3 in turn adjoins the M25, thereby providing excellent links to Gatwick and Heathrow international airports.
Local schools enjoy an exceptional reputation and are considered amongst the best in the country.
