Halliford Road, Shepperton, TW17

Dating back to 1744 and originally serving as the coach house to the historic Halliford Manor, Clock Cottage is a truly exceptional detached period home rich in character, heritage and architectural significance. Offered to the open market for the first time in over 30 years, this unique residence is locally listed and occupies a prominent position within the Upper Halliford Conservation Area, close to the River Thames.

At the heart of the property is its most iconic feature - the original working clock, manufactured in 1743 in Walton on Thames. Carefully maintained and still in full working order, the clock forms both a striking architectural centrepiece and a captivating link to the home’s rich past.

The accommodation is beautifully balanced, offering generous and versatile living space suited to both modern family life and elegant entertaining. The ground floor is arranged around a series of characterful reception rooms, all displaying an abundance of exposed beams, a beautiful fireplace and natural light. A particularly impressive feature is the spacious kitchen/dining room, thoughtfully designed for everyday living and entertaining alike, with bespoke cabinetry, extensive work surfaces and views across the gardens. This flows seamlessly into a stunning garden-facing conservatory/family room, creating a wonderful sense of space and connection with the outdoors.

A further sitting room, centred around a charming brick fireplace with wood-burning stove, provides a cosy retreat, while additional reception areas offer flexible use as a snug, home office or playroom. The ground floor is completed by a utility room, cloakroom and excellent storage.

Upstairs, the bedroom accommodation is well-proportioned and beautifully presented, with a principal bedroom suite enjoying delightful outlooks and access to a stylish en-suite. The three further bedrooms are served by a family bathroom, all enjoying the same sense of character and calm that runs throughout the home. The fifth bedroom and en suite is accessed by a separate spiral staircase from the Office/reception offering a private self contained room perfect for guests or family members.

Externally, Clock Cottage sits within mature, private and beautifully landscaped gardens, offering a high degree of seclusion. Sweeping lawns, established trees, flowering borders and a raised terrace combine to create a peaceful setting for outdoor dining and entertaining. A particularly charming feature is the elevated terraced seating area, ideal for summer gatherings. There is also the added benefit of a detached garage, a separate summer house/home office and a further playroom positioned above the garage, providing excellent ancillary accommodation.

Positioned within easy reach of Shepperton High Street, the River Thames and excellent transport links into London, the property enjoys both convenience and tranquillity. Shepperton railway station offers direct services into London Waterloo, while the surrounding road networks provide easy access to the M3, M25 and Heathrow Airport.

In summary, Clock Cottage represents a once-in-a-generation opportunity to acquire a historic, locally listed family home of rare distinction, seamlessly blending period charm with practical modern living, all within one of Surrey’s most desirable conservation areas.
