A striking and exquisitely appointed duplex apartment with a private courtyard garden and secure allocated parking

Description

Occupying two floors within this iconic and much acclaimed Grade II listed lift serviced building, this stunning duplex apartment has an incredible interior designed by West Nine Studios and expertly overseen by their in-house team. The building was constructed between 1921 and 1924 to a design by Sir Edwin Cooper, based on a plan produced by Sir Giles Gilbert Scott in 1915, to provide accommodation and nursing facilities for seriously injured servicemen. Following Queen Elizabeth II's reopening in 1978, the property received a Royal Charter in 1979. It was converted in 2014 into exclusive luxury apartments by the 'high end' developers London Square.

As soon as you enter the apartment there is an immediate sense of elegance and grace, with a spacious hallway providing a most welcoming and impressive entrance. The room proportions are excellent and further emphasised by the cathedral like ceiling height in the reception area. There is an excellent flow of natural light, afforded by both the wonderful floor to ceiling glazed doors that lead onto the courtyard garden from the reception area. The layout works perfectly for entertaining as well as everyday family life with an open plan kitchen/dining/reception area featuring a beautifully fitted German kitchen with Miele appliances.

This apartment has the rare advantage of private south facing courtyard garden. Whilst there are also beautifully manicured communal gardens to enjoy there are very few properties within Star and Garter House that have private outside space.

The interior design is extremely tasteful and thoughtful with meticulous attention to detail. The exquisitely appointed and recently fitted bathrooms further emphasise the depth of quality of this truly individual apartment. Other features of note include comfort cooling, underfloor heating, wall mounted touchscreen panels to control the heating, cooling, lighting, video entrance and music, surround sound in-ceiling speakers, a lock up bicycle facility, a secure allocated underground parking space with an electric charging pod and a very long lease. Our clients are also in the process of acquiring a share of the freehold, which will be included in the sale.

The leisure suite is located in the Kings Room and available exclusively to residents. It's divided into distinct areas containing the pool and jacuzzi, gym and sun room, with views of the gardens as a glorious backdrop. The 16 x 5 metre pool is fitted with resistance jets, making it suitable for serious swimming, whilst the adjacent Jacuzzi provides the perfect environment for soothing tired muscles. The sun room has heated loungers and the generously sized gym area is equipped with the latest cardio machines. Two private treatment rooms, in a different part of the building, can be booked for visiting beauticians and masseuses. Across the hall you'll find the magnificent residents lounge, the Queens Room.
Another feature for relaxation is the screening room, a luxurious in-house cinema which residents can book to watch their choice of movie or sporting event along with specially-invited friends. The Star and Garter gardens were laid out when the building was opened and are undoubtedly one of its greatest assets. Residents can also take advantage of the town car service and full 24/7 concierge services.

Location

The apartment is superbly situated at the summit of Richmond Hill, on the doorstep of Richmond Park - with its 2300 glorious deer inhabited acres. The sophisticated shops and restaurants of the Richmond town are within half a mile, as is Richmond's much acclaimed theatre. Whilst even closer at hand the local shops at Friars Stile Road cater well for day to day needs and have a lovely village atmosphere.

Just along the road are the beautiful Terrace Gardens, providing an ideal retreat from the hubbub of daily life and a shortcut to a particularly scenic stretch of the River Thames.

Richmond train station has a rapid and direct service into London Waterloo, as well as the District line tube and overland to Stratford, via north London.

Local schools enjoy an excellent reputation and are considered amongst the best in the country.
