Boileau Road, Barnes, London, SW13

Superb refurbished and extended family home.

Description

This spacious family house has been refurbished and extended to provide a contemporary home with well-balanced living and entertaining space. The house is set back from the road with off street parking and opens into an entrance hall which leads into an elegant bay fronted reception room. To the rear of the house is an open plan kitchen and dining area offering a wonderful multi-purpose living space which is flooded with light from the large, pitched skylights and full width sliding glass doors, extending the entertaining space seamlessly to a generous, private landscaped patio, and garden beyond. The bespoke kitchen has a large central island/breakfast bar and a range of wall and base level units with integrated appliances and boiling water tap. Off the kitchen is a practical utility room/laundry.

The landscaped garden has been designed with both family living and entertaining in mind, with a large terrace overlooking the garden. This is presently a high quality golf practice area, but could easily be laid to lawn. The garden is bordered by a variety of trees and shrubs, and features, at its end a fully insulated garden studio with electricity, presently used as a home gym but offering many opportunities for adaptation. There is a side access leading to the front of the house.

Upstairs, on the first floor, are two good sized double bedrooms, one with an en-suite shower room. There is also a well-appointed family bathroom. The top floor is given over to a bright, spacious principal bedroom suite, with a stylish en-suite shower room.
