Features and description

  • Freehold
Elegant understated luxury in an exclusive West End location. Impeccably designed to a discerningly high specification, The Bleatings sits back from a carriage driveway in a coveted spot at the end of an enviably peaceful gated road. Opening onto beautifully planted gardens and south facing terracing a magnificently curated layout has 4 reception rooms, Tom Dixon lights, a bespoke Martin Moore kitchen/conservatory/breakfast room, Wolf appliances, a study and integral double garaging.

Enviably tucked away towards the very rear of a private gated cul de sac The Bleatings proffers a cherished measure of peace and exclusivity whilst being only moments from the greenery of West End Park. Built in 1997 yet curated to give an air of classical elegance, behind a magnificent double fronted facade a prodigiously fluid layout is filled with natural light and refined luxury design.

With the warming tones of a solid wood floor underfoot and intricate architraves overhead, an exemplary central hallway unfolds onto a trio of interconnecting reception rooms. Spacious and sophisticated, a double aspect sitting room creates a superior place in which to relax and entertain. A full height picture window fills the room with garden vistas while an inset gas fire framed by the clean lines of a stone surround lends a refined focal point against an accent wall. Cleverly defined and united by twin sets of steps, the adjoining family room and a snug with Tom Dixon ‘melts’ and skylights stretch out beneath high vaulted ceilings enhancing the calm and cohesive layout further still. Sliding four pane doors in each make it effortlessly easy to step out into the tranquil surroundings and whilst one connects with south facing terrace at the front of the residence the other tempts you onto a decked terrace overlooking the rear gardens.

Equally impressive, an additional formal dining room opens out onto an extensive patio ideal for al fresco entertaining, and across the hallway a first class study produces an exceptional working environment impeccably appointed with an expanse of heritage green cabinetry and a solid oak desk.

However, it is undoubtedly the magnificent design of the kitchen/conservatory/breakfast room that will always play an integral part of your daily life. Perfectly suited for everyday life or informal evenings spent catching up with friends, this incredible space is filled with light and forges a seamless unity with the gardens. The stunning bespoke Martin Moore kitchen has underfloor heating and is fully fitted with the rich sheen of solid walnut and painted Shaker cabinets topped with sleek granite. An enviable array of integrated Wolf appliances includes a range cooker, steamer, coffee machine and subzero fridge freezer, and a beautiful central island with bar stool seating has the added luxury of a built in champagne chiller. A trio of perfectly placed under-mounted sinks are just one of the subtly incorporated details that makes life easier, while the extensive triple aspect layout reaches around into a tremendous conservatory where French doors allow the patio and gardens to become an easy flowing extension of this outstanding space. A matching utility room sits discreetly hidden away to the rear of the kitchen providing convenient access to the integral garaging and a handy lean to with a glazed roof. A cloakroom completes the ground floor.

With natural light filtering down from above a graceful turning staircase entices you up to a first floor landing where a selection of four generously proportioned double bedrooms echo the aesthetics with their muted heritage palette, leafy vistas and insulated sash windows. Reaching out over the full depth of the house a superb principal bedroom creates its own private wing and has an expanse of tastefully styled fitted wardrobes. A classically styled en suite has both an inset bath and shower cubicle while expansive walk-in eaves give copious hidden storage.
Teenagers and guests will love a further bedroom with fitted wardrobes and a superb modern en suite shower room, and each of the additional two provide a fabulous amount of flexibility for a growing household. An excellent family bathroom complements the principal en suite and the south facing landing generates a peaceful sunlit spot to sit and curl up with a good book or podcast.

Outside
Set within the coveted environs of a private gated cul de sac, The Bleatings encompasses all the tranquillity and privacy you could hope for. A capacious carriage driveway instantly hints at the sense of space within whilst the grandeur of a double fronted facade with a canopied doorway and integral double garaging lends a tremendous introduction. Bordered by a raised bed of agapanthus, fatsia japonica and clipped buxus a tiered landscaped terrace connects with the snug capitalising on the south facing aspect and giving you further excuse to take a break from the hubbub of the day.

Blissfully idyllic, the rear garden generates a beautiful backdrop to this superior Esher home giving every opportunity for daily life to tumble out into the summer sun. The decked terrace of the family room is a sublime place to recline and enjoy an afternoon siesta, while the substantial paved patio is a heavenly spot for al fresco dining. Framed by a cornucopia of colour and greenery an established lawn adds a quintessential English country garden feel and has the delicate scents of lavender, roses and lilies and the charm of a stepping stone path leading to a brilliantly broad third terrace.
