An exquisitely renovated Grade II Listed Georgian home, nestling idyllically on the banks of the River Thames

Description
Nestling idyllically on the banks of one of the finest and most picturesque stretches of the River Thames, Cholmondeley House is a beautiful Georgian Grade II listed family home that has a wonderful homely atmosphere.

In 1711 the Earl of Cholmondeley exchanged plots of land
with Richard Hill who lived in Trumpeters’ House next door,
thus giving him a parcel of land by the river. The Earl died in
1724 and his son, the 3rd Earl, built Cholmondeley House
on the riverside circa 1740. The house has had many distinguished residents, details of whom are available on request. It was significantly extended in Victorian times and has recently undergone an exquisite renovation and re-modelling project by our clients, who have given the house a contemporary twist whilst managing to retain and enhance its wonderful period integrity. The house enjoys a lovely lateral footprint, that has a great flow and provides superbly for both formal entertaining and everyday family life.

Of particular note is the stunning first floor drawing room, with its wonderful proportions and gracious three window bay that floods the room with light and provides breathtaking river views. As you enter the house you are greeted by a most welcoming and generously proportioned reception hallway that beautifully sets the tone and features a striking circular atrium rooflight.

The tasteful and extensive renovation has recently been completed and carried out with a real depth of quality and thoughtfulness. Other features of note include a beautiful bespoke kitchen by Callaghan Interiors, working fireplaces in the drawing room and dining room as well as a wood burner in the family room, cast iron radiators throughout, underfloor heating (a wet system to the whole of downstairs with the ensuite bathrooms upstairs being electric), a vented aircon system to the principal bedroom and both top floor bedrooms, Nest thermostats for the central heating and water, Ubiquiti 24 x7 CCTV, cat 6 sockets in most rooms (also in the ceiling wi-fi) and Doorbird intercom and screens to every floor.

The house is discretely positioned behind a deep walled front garden that gives excellent privacy and receives the morning sunshine, whilst to the rear of the property there is a delightful south west facing walled courtyard garden that is accessed from the kitchen and provides an ideal spot for alfresco dining. There is also a delightful first floor terrace that enjoys prime river views and is accessed from the principal bedroom suite. Furthermore the home greatly benefits from the rare local commodity that is a garage.
