About this home

Two Garricks Villa forms part of a beautiful period Grade I listed country house, once own by David Garrick, originally dating back to the middle ages. Its park and gardens are listed as Grade II by Historic England in the Register of Historic Parks and Gardens of special historic interest in England. The house was originally constructed in the Middle Ages and converted into flats in 1922. It was redeveloped again in 1969 and, when fire damaged in 2008, was restored back to an exacting standard. A grand pillared entrance welcomes you into the reception hall which provides access to three apartments arranged over three floors. Number two is on the first floor and opens into a welcoming entrance hallway. The kitchen lies to the right and leads through to the magnificent great drawing room. This is an impressive triple aspect room measuring 38' with double height ceilings and huge sash windows flooding the room with light. A working fire provides the perfect finish. The principal bedroom is located off the drawing room and features a large ceiling height door out to a stunning balcony which provides breath-taking views of the River Thames. A further bedroom is located at the rear of the apartment where views of the impressive grounds can be enjoyed. A bathroom located off the hallway completes the accommodation. Externally the property is surrounded by Grade II listed park and gardens which are communal including a mulberry tree in the garden, which David Garrick took as a cutting from Shakespeare's garden at Stratford. There is the further benefit of a garage belonging to the apartment and parking is available within the courtyard. With incredible period detail throughout, the Adams brothers architectural influence is felt. You are struck by the façade with the four columns rising over an arched podium. Be prepared to be wowed!
