SHEPPERTON
Property Profile An outstanding home of immense character, dating back to 1909, with an elegance of a bygone era. Retaining many architectural period features including the deep bay windows, high ceiling with plaster mouldings and an oriel bay window overlooking the garden, which is a feature more akin to the earlier Victorian period. It is reputed that a member of the Harrods family originally commissioned the house for his mistress but she refused to move in, so he gave it to his two spinster sisters. Today this charming home has a warm and welcoming atmosphere that is evident from the moment you step into the graceful reception hall, with comfortable armchairs and ornate carved marble fireplace framed by an elliptical arch. Continue through into the elegant drawing room with its generous proportions and wide bay window that floods the room with the afternoon sun. A large Adam style fireplace flanked by display arches, provides a focal point to the room. Tucked off the entrance hall is a cosy study. The formal dining room provides an interesting twist with its tongue and groove panelled ceiling, French doors open onto the terrace and step down into a delightful hexagonal conservatory with a matching vaulted ceiling, perfect for those pre-dinner drinks. The vast kitchen/ breakfast room is a real family style kitchen being the hub of the home, comprehensively fitted with a range of base and wall units by Smallbone, incorporating a central island, inset with a gas hob and separate hotplate with a cooker hood over
