Step inside and you are welcomed into a striking entrance hall, complete with a stylish seating area, elegant working fireplace, and a stunning glass atrium overhead-filling the space with natural light. The main level features a series of versatile reception rooms, thoughtfully designed for both formal entertaining and relaxed family living.
The generous master suite is also located on this floor, offering a peaceful retreat with a large en-suite bathroom and dressing area.
The lower ground floor is exceptionally versatile, comprising a large reception room that doubles perfectly as a party space, complete with a butler's kitchen and direct access to a spacious, beautifully patioed rear garden. This level also houses five further bedrooms arranged across different wings of the property, enhancing its sense of scale and grandeur. Two of these bedrooms feature en-suite bathrooms, and an additional stylish family bathroom completes the accommodation.

The gardens are a particular highlight, meticulously landscaped and dotted with serene seating areas amid mature trees, shrubs, and flowering borders. Residents also enjoy private, secure access to the renowned Pleasure Grounds - three large communal green spaces accessible only to surrounding property owners. These exceptional grounds offer seasonal tennis courts, access to the riverside walks along the Thames, and a calendar of community events including bonfire nights, barn dances, children's sports days, and summer barbecues.

Any Tenant who is renting a home under an Assured Shorthold Tenancy (AST) will pay, or potentially pay, the following :
A holding deposit of one week’s rent to reserve a property which will then contribute towards the first month’s rent.
The security deposit of five weeks’ rent, increasing to six weeks’ rent if the annual rent is in excess of £50,000.
The rent and utility bills as outlined in the Tenancy Agreement
Any unpaid rent will potentially incur interest at 3% above the Bank of England base rate, as outlined in the Tenancy Agreement
Tenants are liable for the cost of replacing any lost keys or security devices, including a change of lock or replacement of device as required.
Amendments to the Tenancy Agreement at the tenant’s request at £50.00 per change, subject to the landlords approval
Should a tenant need to surrender the tenancy early and the Landlord agrees to re-let the property, the liability for payment of rent will end once a new tenant is found and takes up occupation. The outgoing tenant will still need to cover the Landlord’s costs in surrendering the tenancy and re-letting the property.
For any tenant not renting a property under an Assured Shorthold Tenancy, the following charges are also payable:
A one-off upfront payment of £150.00 per tenancy which is a contribution towards the processing of the application, drawing up the Tenancy Agreement and registering the deposit.
A tenant reference charge (£35.00 per tenant) which covers collecting and verifying references from employer/accountant and a previous Landlord reference, together with carrying out a credit check and collecting a copy of passport, proof of residency, bank statements and a recent payslip.
A Guarantor charge (£35.00 per Guarantor, if required) covers credit referencing and preparing a Letter of Guarantee as part of the Tenancy Agreement.
A professional check in fee (the cost of which will be between £105- £280 depending on the size of the property and if the property is furnished or unfurnished) which enables us to arrange a date and time with the tenant to be checked in at the start of the tenancy and checked out at the end of the tenancy, instruct inventory providers, agree the terms of the security deposit disbursement between the tenant and Landlord, return the deposit as agreed with the Landlord and tenant to relevant parties, remit any disputed amount to the Tenancy Deposit Scheme for their final adjudication, unprotect the security deposit, instruct contractors and obtain quotes, organise repairs/replacements/cost of any broken or missing items.
A renewal charge (£75 for the tenant) which covers the cost of negotiating and administering the renewal and re-registering the deposit with the Tenancy Deposit Scheme.
If a tenant decides to rent a property through Griffin Stevens in the name of a business or company, the tenancy administration and reference charge will be £180.00 for a new tenancy and £90.00 for each renewal.
