About
Exceptional Riverside Opportunity with Extensive Gardens and Development Potential Description Positioned in one of West Molesey's most sought-after locations, just moments from the banks of the River Thames, this substantial detached home occupies an exceptional plot offering exciting scope for refurbishment, extension or redevelopment, subject to the necessary consents.
On the ground floor, the property offers a well-balanced layout featuring two bay-fronted reception rooms arranged symmetrically to either side of the entrance hall.
To the right, the principal reception room is a characterful space enhanced by exposed brickwork, a feature fireplace and timber ceiling beams.
This room flows seamlessly into a second reception area, where double doors open directly onto the terrace and garden, creating an excellent connection between the house and its external surroundings.
A brick-built bar and a distinctive oriel window add further character, making this an ideal entertaining space. An office with fitted furniture is accessed from the front reception room.
Beyond the rear reception room lies a charming triple-aspect dining room, flooded with natural light and enjoying lovely views over the rear garden through a bay window.
Returning to the entrance hall, the front aspect dining room leads through to the kitchen, creating a functional family hub.
On the ground floor is a double bedroom with fitted wardrobes, together with a utility room, guest shower room and WC which could be used as a granny annexe or accommodation for a nanny or rental income.
A side door provides convenient external access. A further utility room and additional WC are located to the rear of the property and are accessed externally.
The first floor offers three well-proportioned bedrooms, all benefiting from extensive fitted wardrobes, together with a family bathroom and separate WC.
Of particular note is the self-contained first-floor annexe, accessed independently from outside.
Comprising a studio room, kitchenette, bathroom and separate WC, it offers excellent flexibility for multi-generational living, guest accommodation, a nanny suite or potential rental income.
