For Sale3 Bedroom Terraced House in The Green, Richmond, TW9£2,150,000

Situated directly on Richmond's famous Green, this iconic row of houses is striking by design and offers superb practicality set in one of the area's finest locations. Built by Manning and Partners in 1968 to 1969, this row of terraced houses at 5-17 Portland Terrace received considerable praise when completed; mainly down to their then-ground-breaking design. The development received a Civic Trust Award and the Ministry of Housing and Local Government award for good design. Today, some five decades after they were built, these houses are still the most modern houses on The Green and represent excellent family homes in one of the finest locations in Richmond. The accommodation is naturally arranged over three floors and comprises three bedrooms, two bathrooms, study, large reception room, dining room, kitchen and separate utility room. Parts of the house have been modernised recently with the addition of new windows in most aread and a recently re-fitted en-suite bathroom, but the house would now benefit from more comprehensive modernisation at this stage and offers potential to extend as others in the terrace have done (subject to obtaining the appropriate consents*). Due to the position of this house on the terrace, it offers lovely views directly over The Green and along Pembroke Villas from the living room and balcony. There are two gardens; the rear garden is part paved and well stocked with plants and shrubs and also provides access to the garage and parking space. The front garden is entirely private and an oasis of greenery; it has a very sunny aspect and features an electrically operated sun awning. This particular house comes with a garage and separate parking space, both set behind the newly gated private access way for residents only. Situation The house is located on Richmond' historic Green and only few hundred metres away from Richmond's elegant town centre as well as the most beautiful part of the River Thames. Once used for jousting in the time of Henry VIII, The Green is steeped in history and on the west side the remnants of Richmond Palace can be seen. Many boutiques and cafes populate the nearby street and lanes, along with a collection of mainstream retailers. Kew Gardens and Richmond Park, with its 2500 acres of stunning deer inhabited parkland, are also both around a mile away. Richmond station provides a fast and direct service into London Waterloo, plus District Line Underground and London Overground services. The A316 is close by and becomes the M3 after five miles, allowing a fast transfer to the M25 or continuation to the west. The opposite direction takes you directly into central London, with Hyde Park Corner being just over eight miles away.
