Built circa 1988, this spacious detached family house offers well balanced family accommodation arranged over only two floors. The property boasts three very good-sized reception rooms with the addition of a library and separate study. The kitchen/breakfast room enjoys double aspect views over the lovely, landscaped gardens that have been carefully manicured and well stocked with seasonal plants. Rare to find are five double bedrooms with three bathrooms two of which are en suite. An absolute bonus is the annexe above the detached garage suitable for staff, office or guests or could be used as a hobby room.
Location
Fitzgeorge Avenue sits conveniently between two major town centres, Kingston and Wimbledon. Both have excellent shopping facilities, from department stores housing concessions found in famous West End Streets and specialized boutiques to a wide range of restaurants meeting the palates from across the world. The A3 trunk road offers fast access to central London and both Gatwick and Heathrow airports via the M25 motorway network. The nearest train station at Raynes Park is within walking distance, and the 57-bus route runs along nearby Coombe Lane West to Wimbledon from which there are frequent services to Waterloo with its underground links to points throughout the city. The immediate area offers a wide range of recreational facilities including five golf courses, tennis and squash clubs and many leisure centres. The 2,360 acres of Richmond Park, area of outstanding beauty easily accessed from Kingston Gate and Ladderstile Gate, provide a picturesque setting in which to picnic, go horse riding, jogging or just take a leisurely walk. Theatres at Wimbledon and Richmond are also popular alternatives to the West End. There are numerous excellent local schools for all ages, private, state, and a variety of international educational establishments many within walking distance. The Property
