This detached Edwardian home in Surrey enjoys all the serenity of country life while being within easy reach of the city. Set on a quiet street in Thames Ditton, you’re just a five minute walk from the river, and surrounded by green spaces. The picturesque Giggs Hill Green with its English Cricket green is a few minutes walk down the road, and there are a handful of quaint country pubs in the area where you can enjoy a restorative lunch after a walk along the river. Set over three floors, the four bedrooms are cosy and comfortable, while the open plan living space downstairs is the perfect place for relaxing together. Glass bi-fold doors span the length of the living area, filling the space with natural light and opening out onto a large back garden, perfect for running around in or simply relaxing with a cocktail. For a taste of city life, hop on the train and reach central London in under an hour. After a day of sightseeing, run a bubble bath before curling up for a movie night together in the living room.
