Howgate Road

You enter the property into a welcoming hallway, with elegant wood-paneling and wooden floor.

At the front of the home you’ll find the larger of the two bedrooms, with wooden floor and high ceiling adorned with impressive cornicing and ceiling mouldings, the double-glazed sash windows form a square bay that are fitted with smart white plantation shutters to give some privacy but allow the natural light to flood through the room.

The fireplace centres the room and is framed by fitted cabinetry either side to provide well-thought-out storage solutions.

The second bedroom is another fabulous double with fitted wardrobes and direct access to the private garden. The feature walls are painted in Railings by Farrow and Ball which works wonderfully against with bright white ceiling.

Back in the hallway, there is a very useful and generous understairs cupboard, perfect for practical everyday storage.

The stylish shower room has excellent storage, a large basin and an ample walk-in shower with black crittal-effect shower screen making this space extremely contemporary.

At the rear of the property is the open plan living room/kitchen which has been executed in a simple palette of cream cabinetry and wooden countertops with a teal splashback to add some colour to this already cheerful space.

Natural light flows into the room and a set of French windows open onto the private garden, which creates a wonderful sense of extension to the interior.

From the kitchen window, the view opens onto a quintessentially London scene—an attractive wall built from London Stock honey-coloured bricks, that form the backdrop to the side return, a cleverly used space that extends the garden along the side of the property and creates a very inviting social nook that links back into one of the bedrooms.

The generous private garden is walled to one side and paved in pale and honey limestone that nod to the Mediterranean.

The fencing is painted a chic, charcoal-black, giving the garden a dramatic frame and making the greenery pop. White pebbles line the borders creating a clean and elegant contrast

The garden feels like a secret courtyard, designed for relaxed entertaining from late breakfasts to evening aperitifs, unfolding in a sun-drenched, east-facing haven.

Howgate Road is a quiet and pretty residential road that runs parallel to Sheen Lane on the East Sheen/Mortlake border.

There are several outstanding local schools on your doorstep the closest being Thomson House School.

It has excellent transport links: it is within an incredibly short walk of Mortlake Station, (British Rail 21 minutes to Waterloo), and positioned perfectly for bus routes to Richmond and Putney. It also has very easy access to the A316, M4, M3 and beyond.
