Location

Dryburgh Road is situated within a very short walk of the green expanse and cricket pitch on Putney Common and Barnes Common beyond, leading to the River.

There are excellent local shops and restaurants nearby and a real village vibe to the Lower Richmond Road.

Transport links are excellent, with Barnes Mainline Station (Waterloo), the number 22 bus to Piccadilly and Putney Bridge (District line) all being easily accessible.

The area is very well served by a plethora of schools, including church, state and private.

Description

This sublime period semi-detached family house (3,460 sq ft) is beautifully presented with a wealth of period features, having been the subject of sympathetic and extensive renovations, extensions and improvements by the current owners during their 25 year tenure. It now affords well-balanced accommodation over three floors, plus cellar.

The hall is large and welcoming and the glorious galleried staircase, is a striking feature of the property.

To the right on entry is a refined drawing room, with its feature fire place and a pretty outlook over the beautifully designed and manicured front garden.

To the middle of the house is a well-proportioned sitting / family room,which is particularly light, by virtue of the skylights to the garden room beyond it and which has level access to and sweeping views over the gorgeous south facing garden, which extends to 102".

To the rear of the house is a beautiful bespoke kitchen / breakfast room with hand crafted cabinetry in a timeless design and this leads into the garden room and also a well positioned home office, again with a beautiful garden outlook and views to the west. There is also a well equipped secondary kitchen / ante room, a ground floor cloakroom and a bike / store room.

The ground floor is open plan enough to give an extraordinary sense of space, light and an easy flow to the accommodation, whilst also offering the separation and definition of space needed for practical family living and entertaining on a grand scale: A very well conceived and executed floorplan indeed.

The lower ground floor is easily accessed and is currently used as a large utility room.

The sumptuous principal bedroom is to the rear of the house, overlooking the garden and has far reaching and green views over the garden and beyond. There are also two further bedrooms on this floor and these are well served by a large, well designed family bathroom, which has both a beautiful bath tub and a separate walk in shower.

The top floor is given over to two large double and a single bedroom, currently used as a study/sitting room. Perfect for teenagers or perhaps a nanny/au pair.

To the rear of the property, the south facing garden is beautifully designed and manicured and a true reflection of the sellers' vision and the desire for the house and garden to work as one, complementing one another.

The house is set well back from the road and the pretty front gate leads on to the path to the front door.

A very handsome house, sympathetically extended and improved by the owners over many years, with absolutely no expense spared. A timeless family house indeed.
