Description

Traditional Tudor character at the front, coloured glass and leaded-style windows included, gives way to a superbly extended family home behind, centred on a remarkable 38 ft double-aspect kitchen, living and dining room. Set in a leafy North Kingston close, it also combines folding doors to the garden, a proper utility room, off-street parking and underfloor heating.

Room for the family everyday. Not just for Christmas.

The ground floor has been transformed into one bright and exceptionally generous living space, bringing the kitchen, dining and sitting areas together across approximately 38 ft.

Its double aspect draws light through the room, while underfloor heating keeps the floor clear of radiators and allows the space to be arranged freely. There is ample room for a full dining table, comfortable seating and everyday family life without any one part feeling compromised.

The kitchen takes centre stage.

The fitted kitchen forms the centre of the room, with a substantial island incorporating a second sink and integrated dishwasher.

Siemens appliances include a dual-fuel hob and twin ovens, alongside an integrated fridge and freezer. The arrangement provides generous preparation space and keeps the cook connected with the rest of the room rather than tucked away from it.

Open up. Step out. Relax.

Folding doors extend across the rear of the room and open directly onto the patio and garden.

Opened together, they create a broad connection between inside and out, allowing the rear of the house to work particularly well for summer dining, entertaining and family gatherings.

The garden runs from the patio to a lawn with planted borders. A side gate and shared side driveway connect it to the front, where the forecourt provides off-street parking for two cars.

The room you can't live without.

The separate utility room is a lifesaver.

It has space for a washing machine and separate tumble dryer, together with fitted cupboards, worktops, a sink and a clothes-drying rail. An added entrance porch and ground-floor cloakroom complete the practical accommodation.

Underfloor heating also extends to the ground-floor cloakroom and first-floor family bathroom. The house is double glazed throughout, with gas central heating supplied by a Vaillant ecoTEC boiler.

The sky is the limit.

The house already offers 1,044 sq ft of extended accommodation, with further potential to create additional space within the loft, subject to the necessary consents.

From Tudor Drive, to stunning drive.

The property sits in a quiet North Kingston close.

Shops, a Post Office, library and bus services are available nearby on Tudor Drive, including the 371 to Richmond one way and Kingston the other. In the other direction, routes lead towards Ham Common Woods and Ham Gate, providing direct access into Richmond Park.

New to the area?

Kingston is named after a stone. The Coronation Stone, still standing by Clattern Bridge, crowned seven Saxon kings, starting in 902. North Kingston keeps a quieter version of all that history: the riverside along Lower Ham Road is a conservation area and home to the rowing and sailing clubs, and the walk to town runs through Canbury Gardens, past The Boaters, to Kingston Bridge, the first major Thames crossing above London Bridge until Westminster Bridge was built. Town brings the market square, trading for centuries beneath the Market House of 1840, and David Mach's Out of Order, red telephone boxes toppled like dominoes since 1988. Richmond Park is up the hill. We have been selling homes here since 1975, and we look forward to selling this one to you.

About Mervyn Smith, Kingston Upon Thames & Ham

315 Richmond Road Kingston Upon Thames KT2 5QU
Industry affiliations:Industry affiliation logo 0Industry affiliation logo 1Industry affiliation logo 2

We don't sell property. We sell homes. For over 50 years Meryn Smith have helped many generations of the same family to get on the property ladder, move, downsize or deal with selling their home in more trickier times. We have survived by word of mouth and reputation - these are the true measures of happy customers. That does not mean we are perfect - but we are humble and human enough to own it when we are not.

As the owner of Mervyn Smith, whatever your circumstances, I personally make three promises, I invite you to hold us to them:

1. We will deal with you honestly and directly, even when it is not in our own self-interest.

2. We will do all we can to sell your home to the most qualified buyer; and to sell the right home to you, not the one most convenient or profitable for us.

3. If we have failed to uphold the high standards to which you rightly hold us, and to which we hold ourselves, we will apologise, and look for solutions, regardless of cost to the business or ourselves. If we think you would be better served by another agent, we will tell you who and why.

Whilst experience may vary. Buying and Selling in the UK is not for the fainthearted. We cannot change the government of the day, the mortgage companies, the conveyancing companies, nor the feelings and illogical choices some people may make when the pressure is on - but we have been there, seen it, and got the T-Shirt - thousands of times, and that's just Stan.

When you are choosing who to deal with credibility and trust matter. You cannot have one without the other. We are not owned by private equity, or a large financial institution. You can call me personally should you wish, and everybody is empowered to put things right at the point of first contact. We use facts, data and experience to provide the most valuable insight available to anyone. Like the mightiest oak tree, local roots are more important than the biggest branches - this is true of estate agencies.

When it is time to buy or sell your home, whoever you choose, choose wisely. Choose Mervyn Smith.

Thank you. David Walsh - Owner on behalf of the team here at Mervyn Smith. Stan. Jamie. Barbara. Sue and Babs and behind the scenes Julie.
