Wolsey Close, Kingston Upon Thames, Surrey, KT2

The property is approached off Wolsey Close to a mono block paved forecourt with off street parking for a minimum of 3 cars behind a dwarf brick wall with mature borders.

The front façade offers some lovely features including a wide brick arch stepped into the covered entrance porch with the original terracotta tiled floor and a solid Oak front door that opens into the Entrance Hall. One is welcomed with a three-quarter oak panelled entrance hall with the original wood strip flooring, a built-in cloaks cupboard and further storage under the stairs. The L shaped entrance hall also leads to the guest cloakroom. To the left of entrance hall is a double aspect drawing room with a feature fireplace with an AC unit and with access to the rear sun lounge with double glazed sliding doors to the rear garden and terrace. The whole of the ground floor also benefits from a ceiling height of 2.5 meters and offers double glazing throughout the house. There is also a delightful family room with a semi-circular bay with a feature stone surround gas fireplace and AC unit, facing the rear garden.

To the front of the house into the bay window is the well-appointed kitchen offering a wide range of built in wall and base units with a breakfast bar and a range of stainless steel integrated kitchen appliances including a dishwasher. There is splash back tiling and a teracotta tiled floor. A door leads from the kitchen into the formal dining room which is also accessible from the entrance hall.

There is also a laundry room that faces the rear garden with access to the side access.

The easy rising staircase leads to a very spacious landing with a whole wall of built in open shelving boasting a lot of light from the front of the house with solid oak panelling. There is a large access to the loft, which is significant in size with an adaptable area due to the open roof structure with the purlins and rafters being minimal, compared to the new pre-trussed frames that are used in new builds made off site. You can tell that this loft was made on site during the construction. This could very easily form a sizeable bedroom with an en suite bathroom and dressing room.

There are five bedrooms to this level, all of which are double, some with built-in wardrobes, and two with en suite shower rooms. The fifth bedroom is accessed off the principal bedroom, currently used as a dressing room. Three of the bedrooms face the rear garden and the other two to the front, with air conditioning to the two rear bedrooms and bedroom 4 to the front.

This lovely property is ideal for a family seeking a new life within leafy surroundings with the potential of customising the house to suit modern living.

The rear garden, which extends to approx. 145 foot in depth (44.5m), is ideal for any garden sport with a concealed organic garden area, a green house and garden workshop.

The garden features a historic fully operational water well, which benefits from an iron grill for safety. The garden has many features with a pergola path running to the side of the garden and central gazebo to the rear lawn.

There is also a fishpond near the rear terrace with a cascading water feature. The outside brick storeroom, immediately to the rear of the house, is useful for many purposes such as a cycle store or could be converted to a gym.
