“Just a stone's throw from the green expanses of Bushy Park, famous for its diverse wildlife”
This wonderful one-bedroom flat is positioned in the quiet, leafy development of Harrowdene Gardens in Teddington. Situated only a stone’s throw from the green expanses of Bushy Park, the flat has far-reaching views of the beautiful grounds beyond, to such an extent that the odd deer can occasionally be seen from the bathroom window. The current owners have added thoughtful contemporary design interventions throughout, all of which are in keeping with the building’s mid-century aesthetic.
The Tour
Entrance is on the second floor, to a lobby area paved with reclaimed Indian teak flooring. Adjacent to the front door is an exceptionally bright open-plan kitchen and living area, where slim floorboards run underfoot perpendicular to the room, elongating the space. The sleek, minimal kitchen stretches across one wall, where echoes of the building’s mid-century charm combine with a contemporary aesthetic. A built-in shelving system by Leicht on the opposite wall makes clever use of space and features hidden cabinetry and a lighting system.
There is a double bedroom on the opposite side of the plan, with timber slatted panelling at the rear and plenty of built-in cupboard space. Adjacent to the bedroom is a good-sized bathroom with exceptional views over the park beyond.
There is also a separate garage on the grounds of the development.
Outdoor Space
Harrowdene Gardens is positioned among beautiful, manicured gardens with winding pathways and immaculate landscaping. The flat is also a short walk from Bushy Park, the second-largest royal park in London and popular for its diverse wildlife.
The Area
Teddington was voted the best place to live in London by The Times in 2021 and has an excellent selection of restaurants, cafés and shops, plus a recently launched farmers’ market. Harrowdene Gardens is only a stone’s throw from Bushy Park, which lies next to Hampton Court Palace, and within walking distance of the River Thames at Teddington Lock. Here, there is access to the towpath and walking/cycling routes in both directions. The larger shopping areas of Kingston and Richmond are also within easy reach.
Harrowdene Gardens has a private pathway leading to Teddington train station on foot. The station is a 10-minute walk away and offers services to London Waterloo with journey times of approximately 40 minutes. There are regular buses into Richmond (where the Underground runs District Line services) and Kingston. It is a short drive to the M3, with good access to the M25 and M4.
