Coombe Road, Kingston Upon Thames

Believed to date from circa 1902, Resthaven is an elegant four double bedroom period residence, presented in immaculate condition and combining original character with versatile family accommodation. A particular feature is the impressive ceiling height, reaching approximately 3.16m in the principal reception rooms. The property also benefits from a self-contained garden cottage with adjoining studio, off-street parking for approximately four vehicles and an established rear garden.
The house is approached via a black and white ceramic mosaic pathway leading to a glazed entrance canopy. Inside, the entrance hall features wood strip flooring which continues into two well-proportioned reception rooms, both showcasing original panelled bay windows, attractive fireplace surrounds, ornate cornicing and high-level picture rails.
Stained glass double doors open into a more recently added family room, featuring a partially glazed vaulted ceiling and bi-folding doors leading onto a full-width paved terrace. The adjoining breakfast room and kitchen provide an excellent space for family life and entertaining. The kitchen is fitted with a range of wall and base units, extensive work surfaces, an induction hob, double oven and space for additional appliances. A characterful fireplace with gas coal-effect fire and marble hearth provides an attractive focal point. A boot room and separate utility room complete the ground floor accommodation.
The upper floors provide four double bedrooms and three bathroom facilities, including a well-appointed en suite to the principal bedroom. The first floor features two generous front-facing bedrooms with extensive built-in storage, while the second floor offers two further double bedrooms with dormer windows and deep fitted cupboards. Additional features include a family bathroom, guest cloakroom, separate second-floor shower room and a substantial boarded storage area. Subject to the necessary consents, there may be potential to create a dressing room adjoining the principal suite and further accommodation within the second-floor storage area.
The rear garden offers a paved terrace spanning the width of the house, ideal for outdoor dining and entertaining, leading to a lawn with established borders, mature planting and a pergola adorned with climbing roses and wisteria. A covered area to one side provides further practical outdoor space.
A significant advantage is the separate L-shaped garden cottage, which has consent for rental use and comprises a bedroom with built-in cupboards, en suite bathroom, living room and separate kitchen. An adjoining studio offers flexible space for a home office, workshop or leisure use. Both buildings are double glazed and benefit from paved terraces, with the cottage offering scope for guest accommodation, multi-generational living or potential rental income.
Coombe Road is conveniently positioned within easy walking distance of New Malden town centre and railway station, with Kingston upon Thames and Wimbledon also readily accessible. The area offers a variety of shops, restaurants, leisure facilities and highly regarded schools. The A3 provides convenient road access towards central London and the M25, while nearby Richmond Park offers extensive open space for walking, cycling and outdoor recreation.
