Garrick Close, Walton-on-Thames, KT12

SOUTH FACING COMMUTERS DELIGHT - This handsome family home is positioned within this highly sought-after and exceptionally convenient cul-de-sac, just off West Grove and moments from Walton’s mainline railway station, providing an excellent service to London Waterloo.

Retaining a wealth of original features, the property immediately creates a warm and atmospheric first impression, whilst our clients have thoughtfully reconfigured key areas in recent years to suit the demands of modern family living. The welcoming entrance hall, with its defining period features, sets the tone perfectly.

The ground floor provides three large and distinct reception rooms, offering considerable flexibility for family life, with further scope to enlarge if required, subject to the necessary consents. The principal reception room is a particularly impressive space, featuring a tiled floor with underfloor heating and twin sets of bi-fold doors opening onto and overlooking the secluded rear gardens. The attractive wood flooring continues from the entrance hall into the dining room, creating an elegant setting for both everyday family dining and successful dinner parties. The family room is equally well proportioned and, once again, retains a number of individual character features.

The kitchen/breakfast room is a wonderful family space, part vaulted and overlooking the garden, with Velux windows drawing in an abundance of natural light. A generous range of cream cabinetry is complemented by attractive oak work surfaces. The part-vaulted utility room is extremely practical, incorporating a dedicated laundry area and walk-in shower, together with an integral door providing access to the garage. A downstairs cloakroom completes the ground floor accommodation.

On the first floor are four well-proportioned bedrooms, with the principal bedroom enjoying the benefit of an en-suite facility, alongside a modern family bathroom.

Externally, the property is approached via a generous driveway providing ample off-street parking and leading to the integral garage. To the rear, the southerly facing garden extends to over 100 ft, providing an exceptional outside space for family enjoyment and entertaining. A large expanse of lawn is surrounded by a wealth of mature planting, creating a wonderfully private and secluded setting, whilst the wide sun terrace is perfectly positioned for summer entertaining.

At the far end of the garden is a detached summer house, offering excellent versatility and currently ideal for use as a home gym or games room. There is also a particularly useful home office/workshop, providing valuable additional storage and workspace.
