Hawkshill Place, Portsmouth Road, Esher, Surrey, KT10

A beautiful Grade II listed property in a secluded yet convenient location.

Description

Middle House forms the central part of a beautiful Grade II listed Victorian mansion. This family home was designed by local architect Loxwood King and dates back to the 1880s. It was built as a hospital and is the middle third of a large house. This charming property retains many of its original features such as attractive sash windows, elegant period floor tiles, stained glass, beautiful high ceilings and detailed cornicing as well as providing well balanced accommodation for modern day family living.

On the ground floor the welcoming entrance hall leads to the truly impressive principal reception room which benefits from amazing ceiling heights, a beautiful working fireplace with marble surround and original, incredibly ornate hardware on the doors. This room also offers fantastic views over the garden whilst subtle feature wallpaper adds depth and texture to the walls. Off this room lies the beautiful orangery with Victorian style tiled flooring, providing useful additional space and access to the patio and garden beyond.

The kitchen/breakfast room is fitted with a range of stylish pale grey units, contrasting quartz worktops and integrated appliances. There is causal seating at the peninsular breakfast bar, whilst there is also plenty of room for a dining table and chairs for more formal dining. A generous utility room and guest cloakroom complete the ground floor accommodation.
Charming stained glass windows are situated on the turn of the stairs which lead you to the first floor landing, an equally impressive space with natural light flooding through the skylight above. The spacious principal bedroom suite can be found at the end of the landing featuring attractive wooden flooring, a walk in wardrobe, wooden ceiling fan and a delightful en suite with a free standing bath. There are three further bedrooms on this floor, although one is currently used as a study. These are served by two shower rooms.

On the second floor is a large bedroom with fitted wardrobe and study area, the ideal space for a teenager or au pair/nanny.

Externally and to the front of the house there are 2 garages, private allocated parking and an EV charging point. To the rear there is a substantial and beautifully maintained southerly garden which is surrounded by mature trees, with a wooded area to the rear providing privacy and seclusion. There is a patio area adjacent to the house providing the perfect spot for al fresco dining and entertaining. There is also gated access to the rear of the property.
