16, Lion Gate Gardens, Surrey, TW9 2DW

A beautifully appointed and wonderfully proportioned home with generous parking and a delightful garden.

Description Having been renovated and extended with a real depth of quality and thoughtfulness this architecturally distinguished late Victorian family home is tastefully presented and beautifully appointed throughout.

It has fabulous room proportions, that are further emphasised by the impressive ceiling heights.

Of particular note are the spectacular kitchen/dining/family room - a wonderful open plan space that is flooded with natural light and 'brings the garden into the house' - and the principal bedroom suite which runs across the full width of the house and features a fantastic Helo steam room.

To the front of the house there is ample off street parking for several cars and to the rear there is a delightful, generously proportioned garden that is well established and predominantly laid to lawn.

There is a large patio area to the front of the garden, providing an ideal space for alfresco entertaining, whilst to the rear there is an astroturf play area with football goals, tennis and climbing walls.

Both front and back gardens have irrigation systems.

Other features of note include a Hacker kitchen with extra wide oak flooring and underfloor heating, high end appliances, a climate controlled wine cellar, a 50 inch by 90 inch in-ceiling cinema screen with ultra thin Bezel ceiling speakers to the front living room, four zone heating and water (each floor can be controlled separately), two laundry chutes, electric underfloor heating and majestic glass to all the bathrooms, Poliform wardrobes to all bedrooms and cat 6 cabling to all the reception areas and bedrooms.

Location The house is enviably positioned within this highly regarded road, just a few hundred metres from both the sophisticated shops and restaurants of Richmond town centre and the charming village that is Kew Gardens.

Whilst even closer at hand (The Lion Gate is within approximately 200 metres of the house) the world-renowned Royal Botanical Gardens of Kew are breathtaking and provide an ideal retreat from the hubbub of daily life.

Kew Village has a lovely atmosphere with a good selection of independent shops and cafes, as well as a monthly farmer's market.

Richmond also boasts a particularly scenic stretch of the River Thames, a much-acclaimed Theatre, three cinemas and of course Royal Richmond Park, with its 2300 acres of deer-inhabited woodland.

Richmond train station provides a rapid overland service into London Waterloo (in under 20 minutes) as well as the District Line tube and Overground to Stratford via North London.

Local schools enjoy an excellent reputation and are considered amongst the best in the country. Square Footage: 3,903 sq ft
