Detached house for sale in Shepperton TW17, 3 Bedroom

Orchard Cottage is an intriguing home with a fascinating history, believed to date back to the early 1800’s or possibly earlier. It was later gentrified in the mid 19th Century from a pair of cottages and significantly extended with various additions, the most recent being a large double glazed conservatory in 1994. To the side is a former stable that has also been extended to form a garage with an adjoining office, reputed, to have been used as a doctor’s surgery by a former owner. The property retains a wealth of character but is in need of extensive renovation. The crested clay tiled entrance porch with its oak door adorned with heavy wrought iron furniture sets the scene. The 30’ drawing room is an impressive triple aspect room retaining its wide plank chestnut floor, ceiling beams and open fireplace. A pair of glazed doors lead into an anti-room that opens onto the front courtyard and into the office area and cloakroom. To the right hand side of the central staircase are the dining room, kitchen, scullery, utility and a large conservatory. To the first floor are three double bedrooms, each with its own character and a large bathroom. Council Tax Band: G
