This fascinating Georgian riverside cottage represents an opportunity to not only purchase a home with immense character but a piece of quintessential village history. Situated in the heart of the picturesque Thameside village of Lower Sunbury, this wonderful home enjoys a pretty south facing garden complete with a 17? private mooring fronting onto the mainstream of the River Thames.

We understand the original building dates to circa 1690, later extended with a rear two storey addition in the Victorian era. Our clients purchased the property in 2010, then immediately set to on an exhaustive project lovingly and sympathetically restoring their cottage and enhancing its character, whilst making it conform with the comforts of modern day living. Some of the many extensive improvements include upgrading the cellar, replacement of an old lean-to garden room with a magnificent plate glass conservatory and vaulting the ceiling and exposing the beams in the main bedroom to give the room a tremendous character and a wonderful feeling of space.
Step through the wide oak front door into an entrance lobby where there is the boiler cupboard. This leads into the kitchen/dining room that is of a generous size and has been fitted in keeping with a range of Shaker style units inset with a Belfast sink and integrated appliances. To one side is a large dining alcove that can accommodate a 6-seater table, dresser and serving table. Adjacent is a useful guest cloakroom and a further door leads down to a large dry two room cellar with power, lighting and provision for laundry appliances. Step down from the kitchen into the elegant, double aspect living room, which again is of a good size and full of character with its open fireplace inset with a log burner. A pair of glazed doors open into the conservatory that opens onto the garden, perfect for summer entertaining, and for those chillier days it has a heated terracotta tiled floor. To the first floor are two generously proportioned double bedrooms, each with its own character and both retain their cast iron fireplaces and built-in wardrobes. The beautiful main bedroom overlooks the garden and the river. Completing the package is the bathroom that has been attractively appointed with a 3-piece white suite.

The southerly backing walled riverside garden is very much in keeping with the cottage style and has been professionally landscaped with ease of maintenance in mind. A paved terrace inset with a water feature leads onto a shaped lawn bordered by specimen shrubs with a garden shed and gated access to the one side. A path leads to the riverside patio that is a wonderful spot to relax and catch the setting sun whilst watching the world float by. There is a 17? mooring onto the mainstream of the river Thames, which is ideal for a day boat or tender. If you have a larger vessel, then why not join The Middle Thames Yacht Club opposite and take a mooring.

32 Thames Street is ideally situated within the picturesque conservation area of Lower Sunbury village and only a short stroll of local shops, a reputable selection of public houses, restaurants, Health Club and schools. Sunbury rail station is within 1.3 miles, as are M3, junction 1 and the A316 to London. M25, junction 11 and Heathrow Airport are both 6 miles drive and Central London is only 17 miles distant.
