Sandhills Meadow, Shepperton, Surrey, TW17

A rare opportunity to purchase a piece of village history. Villa Rosa is reputed to be a former a tennis pavilion dating back to the 1920’s and it does not take too much imagination to envisage afternoon tea and sandwiches being served in the delightful gardens. The property is of timber construction raised on brick pillars, retaining its charm and character, skilfully blended with contemporary design having been extensively renovated in 2014. The single storey accommodation extends to 1360 sq.ft (126.3 sq.m) providing an adaptable layout currently comprising 3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, study and a large open plan living room that retains its working brick fireplace and has a wide bay window overlooking woodland. To one side is the kitchen area that has been attractively fitted with a range of cream fronted Shaker style units with contrasting worktops and an integrated dishwasher. Provision has been made for a range cooker and an American style refrigerator. This opens onto a raised deck, perfect for summer entertaining. The laundry appliances are housed in a utility room off the rear veranda. An outstanding feature to the home is the magnificent gardens that extends to approximately 0.34 acre. The property sits towards the rear of its plot in attractively landscaped gardens that are extensively laid to lawn enclosed by mature shrubs and specimen trees, providing good screening. To the rear is woodland that provides an attractive backdrop and to the left-hand side is a parking area that can comfortably accommodate 4 vehicles. Due to the construction of the property, it is being sold to cash buyers only.
