188 Manor Road North, Thames Ditton, KT7 0BQ

Ivy Gate are delighted to introduce to the market this substantial and beautifully presented six-bedroom Edwardian family home, ideally positioned for Hinchley Wood's highly regarded schools and offering exceptional living space arranged over three floors.

Extensively improved and thoughtfully extended by the current owners, the property successfully combines the proportions and character of an Edwardian home with a superb contemporary layout designed for effortless comfort and energy efficiency, the home features underfloor heating throughout.

The main house extends to approximately 2,493 sq ft, with the garage, summer house and garden store bringing the total area shown on the floorplan to approximately 3,046 sq ft.

First impressions count, and this handsome home has excellent kerb appeal.

The exterior has recently been redecorated throughout, while the paved frontage provides off-street parking for two cars, with an electric vehicle charging point being installed.

The house is entered through an enclosed porch into a welcoming entrance hall.

To the front is an elegant reception room with a large bay window and feature fireplace, while the ground floor also provides a WC and further reception/reading room.

The real centrepiece of the house is the impressive extended kitchen, dining and family space to the rear.

At almost 40ft in length, this is a fabulous room and very much the heart of the home, providing ample space for everyday family living as well as larger-scale entertaining.

The bespoke-style blue kitchen incorporates a substantial central island, extensive storage and integrated appliances, while a large roof lantern and full-width sliding doors flood the room with natural light and create an excellent connection with the garden.

The dining area flows naturally into an additional family/reception space, creating a wonderfully sociable layout.

Also positioned on the ground floor is a particularly versatile self-contained annexe, comprising a double bedroom/living space, stylish shower room and utility area, with its own direct access to the rear garden.

This is an excellent addition to the house and could suit a dependent relative, older child, guests or buyers requiring substantial and separate work-from-home accommodation.

There is also internal access to the garage, providing useful additional storage as well as space for a car. On the first floor are three generous double bedrooms.

The principal bedroom is particularly impressive, with a large bay window and en-suite shower room. Two further double bedrooms and the family bathroom complete this floor.

The second floor provides bedrooms, both benefiting from useful eaves storage, making six bedrooms in total across the house. Outside, the rear garden is a major feature.

Measuring approximately 85ft x 57ft, it offers an excellent degree of space and privacy with a large, paved terrace immediately behind the house, ideal for outdoor dining and entertaining, leading onto a substantial lawn.

To the rear is an attractive summer house with electricity, internet and double glazing, offering further flexible space for a home office, gym, studio or recreational use, together with an additional garden store.

The rear external lighting can also be controlled remotely via a smart app. The overall result is a substantial yet very usable family home.

Despite its size, the layout works exceptionally well, with excellent separation between formal reception space, everyday family living and the additional annexe accommodation.

It is very much a home that a family can move straight into and enjoy. The location is equally appealing.
