Description

** A COUNTRY RESIDENCE IN LONDON **

AN AMBASSADORIAL STYLE FAMILY RESIDENCE SET IN APPROXIMATELY EIGHT ACRES OF PARKLAND WITH ITS OWN LAKE - CURRENTLY IN NEED OF UPDATING

This private residence, which is set behind a gated access, is totally secluded from the surrounding area and is approached via a deep snaking illuminated drive which takes you through the eight acres of parkland, past the lake and the tennis court and sets you at the doors of a magnificent entrance which is highlighted by a central ornamental fountain.

Subjected to considerable expenditure in the past the impact of this property strikes you as you walk through the doors to be greeted by a superb marbled reception hall entrance with a splendid feature staircase. The staircase elegantly rises to the first floor, which comprises an air conditioned master bedroom suite with balcony, en suite dressing room and bathroom, plus two further bedrooms, both of which have en suite facilities.

Leading from the central marbled entrance hall, there is a separate bedroom wing which affords four further bedrooms all with en suite facilities.

Entertaining and living space in this home comprises of a library, dining room, split-level lounge that overlooks the pool, a fitted kitchen and a breakfast room.

A prominent feature within the leisure facilities is the indoor pool complex which has an illuminated wave shaped roof. Other features include an indoor squash court, steam room, gymnasium and a cinema room.

Externally, the estate provides a parkland atmosphere with its own lake and a tennis court.

There is also a three car garage plus ample parking facilities and staff quarters.
