Double Room in Lovely Terraced Cottage in Zone 6

The downstairs

The room is very quiet and private, overlooking the garden and is available for a single professional on a short or longer-term basis, depending on the agreement. The house is a cute terraced worker's cottage from 1860, very cosy, bright, fully equipped, clean and tidy, with a nice garden and bright areas to work from. It’s in a very quiet, safe and friendly neighbourhood, with a great community-owned pub around the corner serving traditional British food. The street is in a very private location in a conservation area, with off-street parking and close to everything; Kingston,
Twickenham, Richmond, LHR, Central London, the river and three Royal parks. The area is a cyclist's, rower's and jogger’s dream!

The agreement would be a flexible lodger agreement with a short-term arrangement also possible. ALL bills and council tax (Band D) are included in the rental amount stated.

You will be sharing for now with a very nice, friendly and relaxed French-Canadian woman so enquiries from women preferred. I speak English, French and Spanish and also some Greek, so feel free to call if you have any questions!

It’s the smaller double room that’s available (hence the recent drop in price) with an option to take the larger room in September.

Area and Transport Links: It's a lovely area and a real South-East of England experience in Zone 6 (South-West London) within striking distance of central London (Wimbledon, Clapham (15 mins), Vauxhall, Waterloo (25 mins.). Richmond is three stops in the other direction by train, or by bus and there are regular buses to Twickenham. Putney Fulham and Chelsea are about 20 minutes by car (or there are buses from Kingston, as well as night buses). The house is reachable by one bus direct from Heathrow Airport in 25 minutes.

Kingston-Upon-Thames and the River are just around the corner, as are two Royal Parks and Hampton Court Palace in the other direction (King Henry VIII's palace that is, after he 'procured' it from Cardinal Wolsey in 1529. Naughty boy!). You're also 20 minutes drive from the countryside!

The space:

The house is very private and a charming and extensively renovated two double-bedroom terraced workers cottage of 1860, tucked away in a secluded cul-de-sac in a popular part of Teddington village, on the border with Hampton Wick, with Bushy Royal Park behind and close to excellent transport links into Central London (Waterloo is 25 minutes) and to Heathrow Airport (bus). My house has been rented previously for major London events, such as the Rugby World Cup (by the Captain of one of the Teams), the Hampton Court Flower Show and concerts at Twickenham stadium.

You will have full access to the whole house and garden. You will also have unlimited access to the great pub on the corner and to its huge garden terrace! General (later President) Dwight Eisenhower used to drink his beer in my road shortly before D-Day. There's a memorial to his men in Bushy Park, behind the house ...Worth a visit!

Please feel free to call me if you have any questions..
