A spacious two double bedroom balconied apartment with stunning views over the gardens from the living room and kitchen – the whole development is set within substantial (abt. 0.75 of an acre) beautifully established gardens and grounds.
Motcombe house is a prestigious apartment building consisting of only 11 flats with gated underground parking and plenty of visitor parking bays to carriage driveway at the front. Remote fob entry secures access to the communal entrance as well as the underground parking area. Internally, common parts are immaculate having been re-decorated in recent years.
This bright and spacious apartment would suit those seeking an opportunity to refurbish to their own standard and specification.
Of particular note is a favourable orientation with an easterly aspect to the front elevation - therefore morning sunrise to both bedrooms - whilst the kitchen, living room and balcony bathe in natural light throughout the afternoon and evening with its south/westerly aspect. At 80 m2 (861 sq ft) there is a good overall feeling of space. The living room is well proportioned at approx. 6.67 x 3.90m (21'11" x 12'10"), this allows for comfortable dining and separate sitting area with sliding door opening onto the balcony, which in turn, accommodates for a small table and two chairs as well as space for pot plants. The views are cherished and very private.
The kitchen / breakfast room is also a good size (4.29 x 2.79m / 14'1" x 9'2") and with some remodelling, there is plenty of space to accommodate all necessary integral appliances, as well as sociable breakfast bar/table if desired. To complete the accommodation there are two generous-sized bedrooms, both with fitted wardrobes, and a bathroom and separate guest cloakroom W.C.
Externally communal grounds are incredibly well tended, extensively planted with evergreen plants, trees and shrubs. The rear lawn is dominated by two stunning protected cedar trees. A small gate in the far corner opens to a private allotment area for the exclusive use of residents. EPC rating 'C'

Location: Palace Road is a desirable tree-lined road and is highly coveted. Motcombe House is situated at the more serene end of road, yet still within comfortable walking distance of Hampton Court Station, Riverside, and the local village area known as Bridge Road. Here you will find atmospheric pavement cafes and restaurants, as well as quality independent retailers and shops, including art galleries, antique shops, butcher, florist, and wine merchant to name but a few. There are considerable green open spaces to enjoy such as Hurst Park, or just across the bridge in Royal Bushy or Home Park adjacent to the Thames and historic Hampton Court Palace.
