About this listing

A rare opportunity to acquire a truly distinctive period home. Description Occupying a coveted position on the much-admired Palace Road and having the advantage of a south-facing garden, this striking and highly individual period home offers over 2,375 sq ft of accommodation with planning permission to extend on the ground floor. Believed to have formed part of the historic grounds associated with Church House, the property has evolved over the years whilst retaining its charm, elegance and individuality. A striking portico entrance with a beautiful front door creates a memorable first impression, featuring classical stone columns supporting a pitched, clay-tiled canopy. Beyond, an enclosed lobby with useful storage to either side leads into the principal reception room; an impressive space of large proportions. Here, four full-height columns create a dramatic sense of grandeur, complemented by a feature fireplace and stained-glass detailing. Double doors connect the principal reception room to a second rear aspect reception room overlooking the garden. This charming space features herringbone wood flooring, intricate cornicing, an ornate ceiling rose and a magnificent bay window that floods the room with natural light. Together, the reception rooms provide exceptional entertaining and family living space, whilst a separate study offers a practical work-from-home environment which could alternatively work as a fourth bedroom. An adjacent guest WC and a plethora of highly useful fitted storage completes the accommodation on this floor. From the rear reception room, stairs descend to the lower ground floor where the kitchen and extensive utility area are located. The utility room is particularly generous in size, providing an exceptional amount of storage together with further space for appliances and household organisation. Importantly, planning permission is already in place (Elmbridge application no. 2023/3224) for a ground floor rear extension and side elevation, presenting an exciting opportunity to create a spectacular contemporary kitchen and family space whilst preserving the home's period integrity. On the first floor there are three bedrooms and two bathrooms. The principal bedroom suite occupies a substantial footprint and benefits from a dedicated walk-in dressing room, extensive fitted wardrobes and a spacious en suite bathroom with both bath and separate shower. Bedroom two is one of the property's most enchanting rooms, positioned within the distinctive turret and featuring a wonderful round window that fills the room with character and natural light. Fitted wardrobes provide excellent storage, whilst bedroom three is another generously proportioned double room with an unique window shape. These bedrooms are served by an attractive family bathroom. Outside, the rear garden enjoys a desirable southerly aspect and provides a peaceful and private setting. Thoughtfully landscaped, it combines an expanse of lawn with mature specimen trees, established planting, rockeries and pathways that create a series of attractive areas to relax and enjoy. A large evergreen tree forms an impressive focal point, whilst the varied planting provides year-round colour and interest. It's worth noting that the property is available with no onwards chain. Location Palace Road is a beautiful, tree-lined road, widely regarded as one of the premier roads of East Molesey. This property is positioned in a particularly peaceful spot, yet is located just 0.6 miles from Hampton Court Station which provides regular and direct trains into London Waterloo in around 33 minutes. Bridge Road (also known locally as Hampton Court Village) is just 0.5 miles away and offers a wide selection of independent restaurants, bars, boutiques and shops with more extensive shopping in nearby Kingston-upon-Thames. Hurst Meadows and the riverside, including both Molesey Boat Club and East Molesey Cricket Club, are less than half a mile away and are used extensively by families living in East Molesey. The historic Hampton Court Palace is only 0.8 miles away with Bushy Park just one mile from the property, offering a beautiful space for walking and cycling. The Elmbridge borough has an excellent selection of both state and independent schools. Square Footage: 2,375 sq ft
