About this listing

A unique home on Richmond Hill, where carefully curated sightlines, double-height volumes and a striking floating staircase create an extraordinary sense of light and space Description Occupying one of Richmond's most coveted positions, this exceptional house commands the world-famous protected view across Terrace Gardens and the River Thames beyond, a landscape immortalised by J.M.W. Turner and safeguarded by an Act of Parliament. Behind an elegant period façade lies a remarkable contemporary interior extending to approximately 2,773 square feet (257.6 sq m), where historic character and modern architecture have been combined to create a home of rare distinction. The principal reception room is undoubtedly one of the finest spaces on Richmond Hill. Beautiful period detailing, intricate plasterwork and a striking fireplace are complemented by a dramatic oriel bay window that perfectly frames the celebrated Turner View. Elevated above the street and flooded with natural light, the room offers an ever-changing panorama across the Thames Valley. A defining feature of the house is the interplay between space, light and perspective. A sculptural floating staircase with glass balustrades rises through a central atrium, creating long sightlines that connect the various levels and draw natural light deep into the heart of the property. Double-height volumes and carefully considered architectural interventions generate a sense of openness rarely found in period houses. At garden level, a stunning kitchen and dining space forms the social centre of the home. Contemporary cabinetry, expansive stainless steel worktops and a substantial island are complemented by double-height ceilings and extensive glazing. Full-width doors open directly onto a beautifully landscaped garden, creating a seamless transition between indoor and outdoor living. The private walled garden has been thoughtfully designed as an intimate entertaining space, with architectural planting, mature palms and multiple seating areas providing a tranquil retreat from the bustle of central Richmond. The accommodation extends across three floors and includes two bedrooms, including a generous principal suite enjoying exceptional proportions and natural light. A further ground-floor bedroom provides flexible guest accommodation, while a detached studio and garage offer valuable additional space for home working, creative pursuits, fitness or ancillary accommodation. Location The house is superbly situated on Richmond Hill, within just a few hundred metres of both Richmond Park (with its 2300 deer inhabited acres) and the sophisticated shops and restaurants of the town centre. Whilst even closer at hand the local shops at Friars Stile Road cater well for day to day needs and have a lovely village atmosphere. Just across the road are the beautiful Terrace Gardens, providing an ideal retreat from the hubbub of daily life and a shortcut to a particularly scenic stretch of the River Thames. Richmond train station has a rapid and direct service into London Waterloo, as well as the District line tube and overland to Stratford, via north London. Local schools enjoy an excellent reputation and are considered amongst the best in the country. Square Footage: 2,773 sq ft
