8, Ailsa Road, Twickenham, TW1 1QW

This handsome detached period home has generous private gardens, grand proportions and ceiling height along with access to coveted communal parklands backing directly onto the 'lake grounds'.

Set on one of the area's most desirable roads, the double-fronted home has been in the same ownership for many years.

Now ready for its next chapter, it is a fantastic opportunity to create a dream home. The ground floor is beautifully arranged for family life and entertaining.

A large front to back reception retains many original features, while another reception space at the front of the house has been used as a grand study.

A separate dining room leads through to the kitchen and breakfast room. There is also a further utility room.

The back of the house, as others in the road have done, lends itself to being opened up and extended replacing the current conservatory (sstp) Upstairs, three bedrooms occupy the first floor, including the principal bedroom, which has been opened up from 2 bedrooms to create a principal suite.

The remaining double bedrooms share a family bathroom. Two additional bedrooms are found on the top floor together with another W.C.

A basement and loft are currently used for storage, but provides scope for further enlargement (sstp).

To the rear of the house there is a beautiful garden which affords excellent privacy and is predominantly laid to lawn with established borders.

It also features a garden shed, a gate leading directly on to the Lake Grounds. Whilst to the front of the house there is a driveway, providing off street parking.
