Description
Available for sale for the first time since 1968, this extraordinary family residence, spanning approximately 3,000 sq ft, was constructed in the early 1900s and is situated on one of East Sheen's most sought-after Park Side streets.
This expansive home features five bedrooms and a wealth of entertaining spaces, including three reception rooms, two kitchens and three bathrooms. The generous living space makes it perfect for family living.
Nestled on a beautifully secluded and meticulously maintained south-west facing plot at the top of Observatory Road, this property presents the new owner with considerable potential to customize and enhance the existing layout, potentially creating a modern family home with up to 3,500 sq ft of accommodation. Moreover, a substantial garage running from the front to the rear of the property offers ample storage or workspace.
The interior showcases spacious rooms with high ceilings that flood the space with natural light. Upon entering from the front door through the hallway, you will find two large reception rooms, a downstairs shower room & W/C, and a delightful kitchen area with access to the south-west facing garden.
The first floor currently accommodates a double bedroom, a study/home office, a family bathroom, a WC, and a larger second kitchen with dining space, alongside another reception room (previously a snooker room, situated above the garage).
On the second floor, an additional reception room and two more double bedrooms await, one of which includes an en suite. This level is ideal for children or could be transformed into an impressive primary suite.
The garden, with its sunny south-westerly orientation, provides the perfect backdrop for family gatherings, featuring a spacious lawn along with side and garage access.
Observatory Road is a tranquil, tree-lined residential street located near the Richmond Park side of East Sheen. This property is conveniently positioned equidistant from Sheen Gate and the local high street, which is home to a variety of shops, cafés, and restaurants. Mortlake Station is just a ten-minute walk away, offering easy access to Waterloo.
The area's desirability is further enhanced by its proximity to Sheen Common and Sheen Lawn Tennis Club, both a mere five-minute walk away, as well as the popular Plough and Victoria Gastropub/Restaurants nearby. The esteemed Tower House School and Sheen Mount Primary School are also within easy reach.
Viewing is highly recommended, as this property is prepared for its next owner.
