"Darland House enjoys a secluded position on The Warren, one of the area s most prestigious and sought after residential roads which runs parallel to the river Thames. The imposing property has a prime position on The Warren with gated access to the front and, to the rear, fabulous gardens which lead down to the river where there is a private mooring and stunning southerly views over the water.

The house was originally constructed in the 1990s and has been subject to a wealth of improvements over the years, though some of the property does retain elements of its original character. The kitchen is a particular highlight, situated to the rear of the home with beautiful views over the gardens towards the river. The attractive cabinetry features two islands, with premium appliances including a Mercury range cooker and, within the adjoining utility room, a side by side fridge freezer, wine cooler and Miele oven and microwave.

The layout is ideal for hosting and offers a variety of spaces for entertaining, including a large sitting room which can be connected to the adjoining conservatory and onwards to the garden perfect for alfresco dining in the warmer months. In addition there is a formal dining room, connecting the conservatory to the kitchen, which gives the accommodation excellent flow.

A striking first impression is provided by the entrance hall which leads up to a galleried landing. Over the first and second floors there are five generously sized double bedrooms, including three en suite, plus a family bathroom. The principal suite has its own dressing area nursery with a balcony that enjoys south facing views over the garden and the Thames. The remaining bedrooms have also been positioned to enjoy river views.

The house is set within attractively landscaped grounds and feels wonderfully secluded, with mature trees around the boundary. The gated entrance adds an additional element of privacy and opens to a large paved driveway, with space for several cars, and a detached double garage with shower room WC. Beautifully manicured lawns wrap around the front of the house to the rear, where there is a large paved terrace and a decking area with covered dining pavilion set over an ornamental pond. The lawns lead down to the water s edge where there is a private mooring with approximately 60 metres of river frontage.
