4 bed detached house for sale

West Temple Sheen, London SW14

The house is an immaculate, bright family space having been totally refurbished less than five years ago with a gorgeous, wide, west-facing back garden of mature trees, shrubs and flowers providing tranquillity and privacy year round, and off-street parking for 3 cars situated in the enviable East Sheen Village located a stone’ s throw from Sheen Mount School, Christ Church and 2 local friendly pubs, The Victoria and The Plough.

The accommodation is perfect for both modern family living and entertaining with light-filled flowing living spaces, a beautiful Martin Moore kitchen with all modern, new appliances, a woodburner in the sitting room as well as a generous study, a well thought-out sunny laundry room, a large cloakroom and a boot room. The considered storage in every room ensures everything has it’s place leaving the rest of the house clear and easy to manage. Whilst the current house offers four double bedrooms with three bathrooms, the property has excellent scope to be reconfigured without disturbing what has already been done as planning permission has been granted to create another luxurious master en-suite bedroom with dressing room and a sixth bedroom, also en-suite at attic level. This allows for the laundry room to be relocated if required to first floor level where there is permission for all three double bedrooms to have ensuites. The fourth double bedroom on this floor could be a play room, study or remain as bedroom. Air conditioning upstairs and underfloor heating in bathrooms is provided. EPC=C

This wonderful property is situated to the southern end of West Temple Sheen which is an extremely desirable, private and peaceful cul-de-sac where neighbours meet regularly, a stone’s throw from Sheen Mount School, Sheen Lawn Tennis Club and Sheen Common. The latter has 4 well maintained tennis courts, the local cricket team plays weekly, and throughout the year it hosts a very wide range of sports and activities for adults and children alike. Sheen Common owned by The National Trust also leads via its pedestrian gate to Richmond Park (a Site of Special Scientific Interest, a National Nature Reserve and a Special Area of Conservation) boasting 2,500 acres with no need to use a car to access.

Just a few minutes’ by bus, rail, bike or car it’s possible to reach many beautiful riverside locations for water sports namely Richmond upon Thames (renowned for its history and culture especially the theatres on the picturesque Green), Petersham (Petersham Nurseries), Hammersmith and Putney (art school).
