House For Sale £3,150,000
Built circa 1939, this fabulous home has been substantially remodelled to create the special character it offers today. Great vision by the architect has been invested in recreating this wonderful five double bedroom property using organic materials inside and outside such as the wood flooring and joinery, tumbled marble flooring to the kitchen/breakfast family room, bespoke designed wardrobes and cupboards and stone cladded walls to the bathrooms. All the wooden windows have bevelled framed sections and are of high quality.
The property enjoys a corner position with The Fairway and Neville Avenue and benefits from a South facing rear garden and the West coming across the rear. The property has accommodation arranged over two floors with a fabulous extension referred as “The Tower and Cellar”. We have referred the ground level of The Tower as the ‘garden room’ being adjacent to formal drawing room. The Cellar, which level with the rear lawn, is perfect as a workshop, and a wine cellar. To the side of the house is a glazed cycle shelter next to the laundry room.
No expense has been spared on the finishes to the extensions and on the modernisations. Quality joinery was used throughout the whole house, from the built in wardrobes to all the rooms, the built in office desk and shelving to the rear bedroom as with the units to the landing, main bedroom and formal study and formal drawing room.
The kitchen is also home to quality wood fronted wall and base units with a granite surface and a wealth of built in appliances which opens into a delightful breakfast area with bench seating and a family area with interesting architectural details and wonderful interiors.
An absolute bonus to the ground floor is a large laundry room with a pitched ceiling, and a boot room with direct access to the front. A necessity for families with young kids and dogs coming in with wet clothes and dirty feet.
The property offers five double bedrooms, a family shower room, family bathroom with a separate tiled enclosed shower and a delightful en suite also with a bath and a large shower, all done to a very high standard. The main bedroom has a well-appointed dressing room offering a wealth of bespoke built in wardrobes and a vaulted ceiling to the sleeping area in the Tower. The wide landing benefits from a bank of built in drawers and a whole wall of built in book shelves with wood strip floor leading to matted flooring to the bedrooms and inner landing. One of the rear bedrooms is comprehensively fitted out as a study with an array of shelving and purpose built in workstations.
The ground floor offers an enclosed study, surrounded with floor to ceiling bespoke, built in bookshelves, some with glazed doors leading into the formal drawing room and onto the rear terrace and a wonderful wood burning stove.
The formal drawing room offers further built in book shelves surround the ornamental window into the hall with built in cupboards coupled with display niches and a wooden shelf. The radiators have been cleverly concealed to match the rest of the room. The Mahogany herringbone flooring leads to the fully glazed ‘garden room’ benefitting from a terracotta-tiled floor and French glazed doors to the terrace.
The adjoining dining room with matching wood flooring also is accessible from the terrace and entrance hall. The guest cloakroom is luxuriously appointed with a wall mounted designer wash hand basin with chrome mixer tap and a wall hung WC pan with a concealed cistern, a granite composite work top and cupboard below with a large mirrored wall and ceramic flooring. What most families seek is a spacious laundry room with space for three machines, a butters recessed sink with a composite granite surface with ample storage with a side door and another door to the front from the boot/dog room with its slate flooring. The entrance hall is also complimented with a wall of custom built in cupboards and a vestibule from the outside before coming into the hall.<br/><br/>To the rear of the house is an elevated paved terrace with a pergola covered in scented jasmine and rambling roses, when in bloom introduces so much colour and scent. The garden has been designed with children in mind, offering many hidden paths for hide and seek, swings, Rope Bridge on the willow tree and plenty of wildlife.
The terrace spans to the right hand side of the house to a secure gate leading to the front. Steps lead down to the lawn and the wide expanse of the garden which boasts so many areas in which to enjoy it. Between the amazing array of perennials, shrubs and trees, colour has been the key player of the design of the garden. It can only be enjoyed by experiencing this as no words can express the tranquillity and calm it offers. If you are keen on an organic garden, then look no further as this garden has been prepared for home growing your own produce with a secluded area for a sizeable greenhouse. The rear garden can also be approached from another terrace off the study with steps also winding down adjacent to the garden workshop/cellar. This is a garden like no other and has been a labour of love.<br/><br/>location<br/><br/>Neville Avenue is one of the premiere roads within the exclusive Coombe House Private estate which is approached from the top off Traps Lane or from Warren Rise off Coombe Lane West. This wonderfully friendly estate is equidistant between Kingston and Wimbledon town centres. Both have excellent shopping facilities, from department stores housing concessions found in famous West End streets and specialised boutiques to a wide range of restaurants meeting the palates from across the world.
The A3 trunk road offers fast access to central London and both Gatwick and Heathrow airports via the M25 motorway network. The nearest train station at New Malden is within walking distance and the 57 bus route runs along nearby Coombe Lane West to Wimbledon from where there are frequent services to Waterloo with its underground links to points throughout the city. The immediate area offers a wide range of recreational facilities including five golf courses, tennis and squash clubs and many leisure centres. The 2,360 acres of Richmond Park, an area of outstanding beauty easily accessed from Kingston Gate and Ladderstile Gate, provide a picturesque setting in which to picnic, go horse riding, jogging or just take a leisurely walk.
Theatres at Wimbledon, Kingston and Richmond are also popular alternatives to the West End. There is a wealth of excellent local schools between the Kingston and Merton Boroughs, pirvate and state with a vast choice further afield via the school buses with pick up points dotted around the area, from Epsom College, acs Cobham, Felton Fleet, Shrewsbury House, Reeds, leh, Hampton Boys and so many more. International Schools such as Marymount, the German, Swedish and Norwegian establishments are also within easy reach.
The Coombe House Private Estate is extremely well run and managed by the residents. Each dwelling enters into a deed of covenant to pay a foot frontage charge which pays for the maintenance of the verges and roads and any other maintenance that is required such as the entrance pillars and gates and lighting poles.
