The Drive, Kingston Upon Thames 5 bed detached house to rent - £8,500 pcm (£1,962 pw)

Commissioned by the original owner in 1972, this Modernist design by architects Stout and Litchfield offers a unique residence nestled within the heart of the Private Coombe Estate with a private lake setting shared by two other properties, in a priavte gated close.There is no other house like this within the immediate vicinity and is ideal for those seeking tranquility and inspiration within a private setting and a Westerly aspect.No room is the same with the majority enjoying pitched ceilings and direct outside access except for one bedroom with a small en suite shower. The two rooms to the first floor enjoy access to terraces within a lake view from the principal bedroom.The property further benefits from an integral double garage and ample forecourt parking with a secure gate.Each of the three dwelling shares the ownership of the communal areas with two share certificates. The running expenses are shared equally, including share of lake, with money only raised when needed.The Drive is a private road and is managed by the 17 residents. There is a snicket towards the end giving access to Orchard Rise, another private road offering easier access to Norbition Station and the 57-Bus route into Kingston and Wimbledon Town centre.The property is being sold with NO CHAIN and is available for immediate occupation.The beautiful grounds within the title boundaries approach approximately 0.30 of an acre (1,228sq m). The garden has been very carefully landscaped to take in the contours of the land with planting around the perimeter of the house and each relaxing area offers something different, with discreet outside lighting. There are seating areas all around the house, with a covered loggia and timber outhouse hobby room. In addtion to the large double garage with immense potential uses, there is further forecourt parking for another 4 cars comfortably. There are no words that can express outside feel of this gem and can only be appreciated from a visit to witness it yourself.LOCATIONThe Drive is a tree lined Avenue like road and is conveniently located close to Kingston and New Malden town centres with their excellent shopping facilities, as is the A3 trunk road offering fast access to central London and both Gatwick and Heathrow airports via the M25 motorway network. The nearest train station at Norbiton is within walking distance and provides frequent services to Waterloo and Vauxhall with underground links to points throughout the city. The immediate area offers a wide range of recreational facilities including three golf courses, tennis and squash clubs. Richmond Park which is within easy access from either Kingston Gate or Ladderstile Gate, (the latter which is approached towards the end of Warren Road just across Kingston Hill), is an area of outstanding beauty, and provides a picturesque setting in which to picnic, go horse riding, jogging or just take a leisurely walk. Theatres in Kingston, Wimbledon and Richmond are also popular alternatives to the West End together with an excellent choice of restaurants. There are also numerous schools for all ages within waking distance of Lake House, private, state and a variety of international educational establishments all within the immediate vicinity.
