Sliding patio doors frame and open directly onto the south-facing garden, allowing excellent natural light and a seamless connection between indoor and outdoor living, complemented by useful under-stairs storage.

Quietly positioned between Fitzgerald Road and Mullins Path, adjacent to the historic St Mary's Church in Mortlake, the house is within easy reach of Mortlake mainline station and the highly regarded Thompson House Primary School (Outstanding by Ofsted).
