NOT SO COMMON! - Lords Ham Office

SOLD     This Victorian gem is situated on Lock Road in TW10 within a few hundred metres of picturesque Ham Common and pond yet still within easy reach of the cosmopolitan shopping centres of Richmond and Kingston.

This is an area steeped in local history!

When Richmond Park was enclosed by Charles I in 1637 for hunting, Ham Parish lost the most of the affected land (over 800 acres), almost half of which was Common land. In return for this, a deed was struck which has effectively protected most of the remaining common land, Ham Common, to the present day. Nowadays the Common is a beautiful part of this quiet charming village, the site for many local events, including Ham Fair and cricket matches.

The older part of Lock Road (so called because it went originally from the Common to the Lock) began to be built around 1890, and consequently these properties are full of character and charm.

This particular property has been sympathetically extended and much improved by the current owner, whilst retaining many period features, to create a wonderful balance of old and new. This comfortable three bedroom period home also offers further potential to convert the loft as in the case of a number of neighbouring properties.

Jonathon Fowles, Manager of Lords Estate Agents in Ham commented, "This beautifully presented property is deceptively spacious with two separate reception rooms, modern kitchen with separate utility area and, unusually for this age of property, an upstairs bathroom with additional downstairs cloakroom/WC. A sunny courtyard style garden completes a most attractive picture."

This charming cottage is competitively priced and the Vendor is already suited, and must be viewed to truly appreciate the spacious and contemporary interior. Click here to see the full details, call 020 8546 6688 or email ham@lordsonline.co.uk for an immediate viewing.
