Description
Atherton House on Atherton Drive is a unique detached house constructed in the 1930's, and set on a plot of 0.6 acres.
There is an immediate welcoming feel on entering the reception hall to the house, with access to the rear gardens and a delightful bay window to the right of the doors. The substantial study is to the front of the house with a beautiful vaulted ceiling, and the Smallbone kitchen/breakfast room is to the left of the hall, with a skylight, AGA, fitted modern units and appliances. There is also a wine room and utility located off the kitchen. The drawing room and Smallbone conservatory are to the rear of the ground floor providing access to the garden. All rooms on this floor open onto or look over the rear garden aspect.
Five bedrooms and three bathrooms can be found on the first floor, the principal having a bay window and en suite bathroom. One of the bedrooms opens onto a pretty balcony overlooking the rear garden. The second floor has a large bedroom suite with kitchenette, bathroom and a loft storage area.
The garden is wonderfully mature with a large lawned area, patio and borders stocked with shrubs and trees. A delightful summer house can be enjoyed too.
Off street parking for a numbers of vehicles is to the front of the property in the courtyard.
Permission has been granted for the renewal of Merton Planning Reference 16/P1276 to build a separate detached contemporary house with five bedrooms on part of the plot.
