" An exciting opportunity has arisen to purchase this wonderful Victorian semi detached house that has been in the same family for six decades. In need of modernisation throughout, but with the benefit of a new roof and several new wooden sash windows.

Located within a few minutes walk of St Margarets‘ Village and the River Thames, this impressive property provides just over 2500 square foot of living accommodation over three principal floors, with the addition of a large cellar.

The house is set back from the road, with a deep frontage, and has enough space to park several cars. Alternatively you could also reinstate a section of formal garden and still have space to park. To the rear of the property is a wonderful wide and deep garden, which is laid to lawn and has the benefit of side access.

Internally the property has immense charm and has retained a wealth of original period features, to include highly ornate plaster ceilings, sash windows, feature fireplaces and an elegant winding balustrade to the staircase with mahogany handrail. Most rooms offer very good proportions, with high ceilings and large windows, providing a very light and airy feel throughout. Of particular note are the adjoining drawing and dining rooms, providing a combined length of 32‘ with aspects to the front and rear.

Although the property requires updating, it doesn‘t take much imagination to see that this could be transformed into the glorious family home it once was. The current owners have already invested substantial funds by recently replacing the entire roof and overhauling the drainage system.

Scope exists to extend the property to the rear, as the neighbouring property has done and to reconfigure the top floor to provide additional bedroom and bathroom space.

The Avenue is one of St Margarets most prestigious addresses and is located within a few minutes‘ walk of St Margarets‘ village centre and station, which provides a regular service to London Waterloo. There are also a great selection of small independent shops, restaurants and pubs and numerous cafes with outdoor seating, giving the area a very distinctive cosmopolitan feel. The River Thames is within a 5 minute walk of the property, with pleasant walks across Richmond Lock to The Old Deer Park, Richmond town centre and Old Isleworth. For the motorist, the A316 provides access to Central London and to the M3 M25 motorways.
