St. Georges Road, St Margaret's Trust Grounds TW1

Description

The Property Partnership are delighted to offer this wonderfully elegant two bedroom apartment, situated within the prestigious St. Margaret's Trust Grounds, a private oasis in excess of 12 acres of parkland, for the exclusive enjoyment of residents of the Trust Grounds.

The Property
Period features, modern refinements and leafy tree top views are to be quietly enjoyed and characterise this most appealing first floor apartment. The welcoming entrance hall leads into a large reception and dining room with typically high ceilings and anchoring fireplace make for a peaceful living dining space with French doors leading to a private balcony/summer alfresco dining area. The kitchen is well equipped with integrated appliances. Outside, the large garden is shared amongst the four apartments in the block, each with a share of the freehold, whilst the gravelled drive provides ample off street parking. Two bedrooms are well served by a modern bathroom.

The Trust Grounds ('The Pleasure Gardens')
The Trust Grounds are made up of more than 12 acres of enclosed gardens, known individually as Lake, River and Avenue. They include an ornamental lake, tennis courts and parkland. The Gardens are for the sole enjoyment of the residents backing onto them. The Lake Gardens are of particular note, with its iron bridges and wonderful sense of tranquillity. Residents hold small concerts and tennis tournaments in summer and carol singing in the winter. Each part of the Pleasure Gardens has its speciality: Lake holds a barn dance and jazz evening, Avenue has a sports day and bonfire night, while River has an annual drinks party.

Location
The property is situated within the St. Margaret's Trust Grounds, close to the Thames path and a most pleasant and even stroll into both Richmond and St. Margaret's. St. Margaret's is a pretty village with a strong sense of community, and is served by a wonderful selection of independent shops and restaurants along Crown Road and around the mainline station. With Marble Hill and Moormead Parks (the latter home to the annual St. Margaret's Fair), riverside walks into Richmond and its outstanding local schools and thriving independent amenities, 'St. Mags' really is every inch the urban village.

Richmond is a larger community, yet still retains a most attractive pace of life, symbolised by the river that rolls gently beneath its 18th century bridge. This historic town is a hub for shopping and socialising, and contains a great number of chain stores, bars and restaurants, in addition to many treasured independents tucked away in its pretty Georgian lanes. Add to this excellent transport links (30% of locals don't own a car), a thriving sports and cultural scene served by two theatres, galleries, cinemas and numerous local societies and sports clubs, and you truly have a town for all seasons. When you have had your fill of the shops you can always escape to the Green or down to the river for a glass of something restorative, or take a stroll up Richmond Hill to take in the only view in England so utterly breath-taking that it is protected by an Act of Parliament.
