The Old Garden is approached through secure, solid oak entrance gates, with a carriage drive leading into an expansive forecourt at the front of the house.
The impressive residence is arranged over lower ground, ground, first and second floors with a gross area of approximately 20,000 sq ft. The quality of the building is immediately apparent. Hand crafted and traditionally constructed from French Anstrude limestone, with bespoke hardwood windows and a traditional Welsh slate roof, all materials, reference and detail have been carefully considered to reflect the prestige of the residence.
The front courtyard, with ample parking for up to twenty vehicles, is laid with sawn Porphery granite setts together with York stone paviors that continue through to the east facing garden terrace.
Created as a family home, the expansive and lateral accommodation provides luxurious and elegant living, with an array of formal reception spaces and more relaxed open plan areas, perfect for families to enjoy and entertain family and friends. The first and second floors provide a mixture of bedroom suites, one of them the principal suite which extends to over 1,200 sq ft and takes up one end of the first floor, incorporating his-and-her bathrooms and dressing rooms.
To complete this extraordinary property is the secluded, peaceful and private garden with a long central axis leading from the house, this is flanked by expansive lawns planted with specimen trees, reminiscent of the gardens' former use as part of the pleasure gardens attached to Buccleuch House on the opposite side of the Thames. Halfway down is the classic Patte d'Oie (goosefoot), forming an axis to both the swimming pool and yew walk. A large pond is a haven for wildlife, informa ecological areas have been developed including a
large wildflower meadow.
A magnificent 60 metre Randle Siddeley designed herbaceous border draws the eye down through the
garden towards the podium and peek-a-boo gate off the towpath. The ancient wisteria trees, now firmly supported by bespoke solid green oak pergolas, simply take your breath away when in full bloom.
Perimeter woodland planting and deep screen planting, in addition to a garden wall, railings and fencing, have been introduced along the property boundaries to give privacy from the surrounding areas.
Famous for its parks, palaces and river walks, Richmond is one of London's most sought-after and attractive residential areas, with an exclusivity that has been retained since Henry VII first made it his home in 1501. Riverside properties of such size and quality as The Old Garden are exceptionally rare.
Richmond boasts a plethora of sophisticated shops, bars and restaurants, so frequented by celebrity it is the norm. A few minutes' people-watching in the delightful setting of Richmond Green, once the site of Tudor tournaments, but now often used for impromptu cricket matches, speaks volumes about the town's unique atmosphere, while a leisurely stroll to the top of Richmond Hill will reveal one of London's best known views over the river Thames towards Ham and the Old Garden.
