Grove Road, Shepperton, TW17

Presented in immaculate order throughout, this spacious three storey three bedroom property has a highly versatile layout.

Constructed in 1964 to the design of the celebrated architect Eric Lyons who was renowned at the time as being at the forefront of contemporary design. The original concept was to create an English Urban Garden development set around open spaces. The development went on to achieve the English Heritage conservation status in 2002, preserving the ethos and environment for future generations.
Number 12 forms a row of more conventional style townhouses in contrast to the modernist architecture the main body of the development, yet still with the emphasis on light and airy rooms that enjoy attractive views over the central landscaped gardens and a southerly aspect to the front over allotments. Our clients maintained the property to a good standard and made many improvements including the installation of double-glazed windows and doors, a total rewire and a new gas central heating boiler in July 2021. The accommodation is set over three floors, providing a versatile layout with a large ground floor reception room that is currently being used as a double bedroom opening onto garden and communal grounds beyond. Adjacent, off the entrance hall is a shower room and the integral garage that has been fitted out as a useful utility room to one end. The principle living room and kitchen/diner are set on the first floor affording elevated views over the landscaped grounds to the rear and the bright and spacious kitchen has been comprehensively fitted with a range of limed oak fronted units with integrated appliances and opens on to a south facing balcony. To the second floor the landing gives access to a boarded loft. There are three bedrooms, the two double bedrooms have built-in wardrobes and the third is a good single room. Completing the package is the modern 3-piece family bathroom.
