Alma Road, Esher, KT10

An utterly charming two bedroom semi detached cottage, beautifully presented and boasting a 58ft south facing rear garden. Tucked away in a quiet side road close to Marney’s Village Inn, the duck pond and Esher Common, the home enjoys a delightful setting within the Weston Green Conservation Area.
We are advised that this characterful cottage once formed part of the estate of the Old Red House — an 18th century residence formerly known as Hansler House, named after its owner Jacob Hansler, a Strand merchant and founder of the Weston Green Chapel.
Inside, the property features a warm and welcoming through reception room laid with wide board oak flooring, complemented by plantation shutters to both windows. The sitting area showcases an exposed brick chimney breast with fireplace, while the dining area includes bespoke joinery and shelving beneath the stairs.
An inner lobby, offering storage and a door to the garden, leads to the modern fitted kitchen, is nicely arranged with a cooking and preparation area beyond which is a laundry area with work surface and sink. The ground floor extension continues through to a contemporary tiled shower room fitted with a generous step in shower enclosure.
Upstairs, are two well proportioned bedrooms, both featuring wood flooring and plantation shutters.

Outside

The side return leads to a surprisingly spacious rear garden for a cottage of this style. Well established, private and secluded, the garden is filled with mature planting, trees and shrubs, and includes a central patio along with a sizeable bike/tool shed at the far end.
