An exquisitely designed home with iconic views
Description
With superb entertaining spaces and generous bedroom accommodation the house offers a great balance between family living and more formal entertaining. The specification, thoughtfulness and depth of quality of the renovation is truly something to behold. Careful attention has been placed on creating very light open spaces, assisted by an abundance of glass throughout the house. In particular a striking triple volume light-well rises up from the garden level, via a unique and spectacular sculptured staircase, constructed of metal and polished ceramic. To the raised ground floor there is a magnificent double reception room, as well as a further sitting room/library with wonderful floor to ceiling windows overlooking the garden. At garden level there is a stunning kitchen/family area which opens onto the beautiful walled rear garden, and a bedroom suite that is currently used as a gym but would make an ideal nanny suite due to its location within the house and the separate lower floor access. The principal bedroom suite occupies the entire first floor, with a gangway suspended over a void connecting the bedroom and beautiful ensuite bathroom to the generous dressing room. There are four further double bedrooms and two further bathrooms arranged over the second and third floors. Outside there is secure gated off-street parking to the front and an imaginatively landscaped walled rear garden that was designed by city garden specialists Harrington Porter, providing a wonderful outside entertaining area and rear access onto Terrace Lane behind.
Other features of particular note include the striking stone kitchen by Eggersmann with Gaggenau and v-Zug appliances, Lutron lighting, stone and wide plank oak flooring, a Sonos sound system and Cat 5 wiring.
Most of the principal rooms enjoy spectacular front aspect views over a particularly picturesque stretch of The River Thames, incorporating Petersham Meadows and the Thames Valley beyond. A gorgeous view is not always guaranteed in London, where the need for new homes often outweighs the vista from existing homes' windows. But the future owners of this exquisite home can rest assured that their viewpoint is protected by an Act of Parliament and remains the only view in the whole of England to be protected by law in this manner. The Richmond, Petersham and Ham Open Spaces Act of 1902 even predates London's most famous sightline protection, the St Paul's height policy, by decades. Many historic artists have immortalised this iconic view, including 17th Century Richmond local jmw Turner. Turner's most famous painting of the landscape is in his piece 'Thomson's Aeolian Harp', which he exhibited in 1806. Remarkably the house also boasts fabulous far reaching views to the rear too, north east towards the city of London.
In contrast to the historic viewpoint the interior of the house is distinctly contemporary, with the much acclaimed London based Gumuchdjian Architects creating uncluttered spaces that are flooded with natural light.
Location
The house is superbly situated at the summit of Richmond Hill, within just a few hundred metres of both Richmond Park (with its 2300 deer inhabited acres) and the sophisticated shops and restaurants of the town centre. Whilst even closer at hand the local shops at Friars Stile Road cater well for day to day needs and have a lovely village atmosphere.
Just across the road are the beautiful Terrace Gardens, providing an ideal retreat from the hubbub of daily life and a shortcut to a particularly scenic stretch of the River Thames.
Richmond train station has a rapid and direct service into London Waterloo, as well as the District line tube and overland to Stratford, via north London.
Local schools enjoy an excellent reputation and are considered amongst the best in the country.
