Shepperton
Downstairs An elegant Edwardian home built in the Arts & Crafts style by the renowned builder W.G Tarrant, who had a reputation for using high quality materials and fine craftsmanship. Today this exceptional family home retains the ambience and character of its period, skilfully blended with the comforts and convenience of modern day living. As you step into the reception hall with its polished wooden floors and beamed ceiling, you will get a sense of the generous proportions of the rooms. This flows through into a well-proportioned triple aspect drawing room that divides itself into two defined seating areas, separated via a central arch. To one side is the fireplace and opposite a pair of French doors opening onto the terrace. A further pair of doors open back into a very spacious dining room that also leads onto the garden and has a return door to the kitchen. To the front is a separate bay fronted family room that has been playfully hand painted with underwater scenes. To the rear, overlooking the garden is a stunning kitchen/breakfast room that forms the hub of the home, beautifully appointed with a range of hand made and painted units complemented by granite work surfaces and a comprehensive range of appliances including a range cooker, integrated steam and microwave ovens, dishwasher and a Sub-Zero refridgerator. A central island breakfast bar provides a social place to chat and there is ample space for a breakfast table. The kitchen flows through into the conservatory, which overlooks and opens onto the garden. Additional Accommodation Above the double width garage is a self-contained annexe studio accessed via an external spiral staircase. The light and airy studio comprises an L-shaped room with kitchenette to one side and a separate shower room leading off the entrance lobby. To the rear of the garden is a detached brick construction gymnasium building with power, light and air conditioning. Adjoining the pool terrace is a pool room housing the heating and filtration equipment and a changing room with WC. On the outside is a shower and covered loggia, ideal for Alfresco dining and pool parties. Upstairs A staircase rises from the reception hall to a light and spacious galleried landing lit by an individually commissioned stained glass window. There are five bedrooms, one currently fitted out as a study. The master suite is an opulent room, inspired by our clients’ vacation to Morocco, beautifully decorated and professionally interior designed with exquisite attention to detail. In addition there are an en-suite dressing room and bathroom, both finished in the Moroccan theme. The beautifully appointed family bathroom has been refitted as a shower room with a walk-in cubicle and an adjoining separate WC.

The secluded gardens are an outstanding feature, being a double width westerly backing plot extending to 0.467 of an acre. The rear garden has been landscaped into four principal areas with a large paved terrace inset with a breeze hut, leading onto an expansive lawn bordered by banks of established shrubs and trees. Steps to the rear rise to a further walled garden that is laid to lawn and screened by high hedging making an ideal area for play equipment or vegetable plot. A picket fencing and established shrubbery encloses the pool terrace that is inset with a heated pool. This adjoins the property and can be viewed from the kitchen and conservatory.
Broadlands Avenue is the village’s premier tree-lined avenue being conveniently situated within a short walk of the High Street & station (London Waterloo 53 minutes).
