Description
Description
An extraordinary historic home in the heart of Royal Bushy Park. Rotunda is a former torpedo testing site from the Cold War which now offers lateral and contemporary accommodation in a very private secluded setting.
Built by the Admiralty, Rotunda was originally a 46 metre, circular water tank with a central arm used to test underwater missiles.
After the cold war, the renowned architectural firm Norman & Dawbarn was commissioned to transform the property into a bright and airy family home. It now offers lateral and contemporary accommodation behind electronic gates.
Norman & Dawbarn are famous for their brutalist modern architecture and well known for their design of the BBC Television Centre in White City. In the design of Rotunda they referenced this commission and touched on certain elements, giving Rotunda a unique style unlike anything else you will find in the market.
True to the property's heritage, the architects installed a copper roof as part of their design, while glass and aluminium has been used extensively to create significant sweeping spaces and an incredible flow of natural light.
There are several reception rooms which include a principle reception space of over 120ft and also a large area at lower ground floor level which has scope to house a swimming pool (certificate of lawful use or development in place) / spa area and gym. In addition, the substantial grounds hold the potential for the installation of a tennis court.
As well as ample storage, there are six bedrooms and six bathrooms and the house enjoys a very open and verdant aspect over their own garden which exceeds an acre, as well as the Royal Park.
Location
The house is in the heart of Royal Bushy Park, with its stunning and extensive deer inhabited acres. Located near Hampton Court Palace, Bushy Park's mixture of woods, gardens, ponds and grassland makes it a fantastic place to enjoy wildlife. The park is also home to the famous Chestnut Avenue, a formal Baroque water garden and the beautiful Diana Fountain.
It is within a few hundred yards of Hampton Hill and Teddington, with their shops and charming village atmospheres. Hampton and Teddington mainline stations are nearby and provide a direct link to London Waterloo.
There are also a number of highly acclaimed schools nearby including Newland House, Radnor House, Waldegrave Girls, St Catherine's, The Mall, Teddington School, Hampton Boys and Lady Eleanor Holles school for girls.
There is easy access to the M3 at nearby Sunbury which, in turn, leads to the M25. This makes for convenient access to both Heathrow and Gatwick Airports.
