A handsome and distinctive Victorian Villa situated in a popular East Molesey 'side road', benefitting from a fabulous (abt. 70ft) west facing rear garden with side access, and driveway parking for two cars.
Forming part of the local East Molesey (Kent Town) Conservation area, this charming halls-adjoining semi, is one of only four houses of similar architectural style. The accommodation is spread naturally across three floors, and is bursting with character throughout. Period features include high ceilings with plaster moulded cornicing and roses, imposing fireplaces, sash windows and original stripped wood floorboards.
The ground floor offers excellent flexible reception space, comprising of an interesting entrance vestibule opening to the hallway, alongside an elegant double reception room separated by tall (original) double doors. The rear reception flows naturally into the conservatory extension with sitting and dinning areas opening to the garden. This area, in turn, provides a beautiful open-plan arrangement to the kitchen which is complemented by stone work-tops, an eye catching AGA range cooker and butler sink. To complete the ground floor an understairs door leads to a highly useful dry cellar – dug out to the centre for full head height – to provide superb utility / pantry & overspill kitchen storage.
Upstairs on the first floor you will find a split-level landing with a spacious principle bedroom (front aspect) featuring large twin sash windows and fitted wardrobe, with a good double bedroom next door, also with its own built-in wardrobe. On the lower landing to the rear, there is good storage and two separate wash facilities; a shower room designed as a wet-room with ceiling suspended rain shower, and at the end of the corridor is the main family bathroom. The top floor reveals a landing with a good linen cupboard and two further generous double bedrooms.
Externally, an established and secluded rear garden is tastefully landscaped to a traditional style with central lawn, mature boarders and three patios / terraces in which to soak up the atmosphere of this tranquil location.
