5 Bed Terraced House To Rent

An elegant Grade II listed Georgian townhouse in the heart of Richmond


Description

Leonard is an elegant Grade II listed Georgian home which offers generously proportioned, naturally light accommodation over four floors. It forms half of the larger Hogarth House, originally home to author Virginia Woolf and her husband Leonard, who both started the famous publishing house 'The Hogarth Press' from these premises.

Leonard is well configured for both family life and more formal entertaining. The property has undergone a comprehensive refurbishment, yet its period character remains intact, enhanced by beautifully appointed bathrooms, tasteful decor and a hand crafted bespoke kitchen

Ground floor accommodation includes two spacious reception rooms (one can be used as a study), both with feature fireplaces. On the lower ground floor is the elegant eat-in kitchen featuring Miele appliances, along with a separate utility / shower room and an adjacent double bedroom, providing useful accommodation for an au pair / live-in staff. There are four additional spacious double bedrooms and three luxurious bathrooms (two en suite) on the upper floors.

Other features of note include the wonderful panelling in the hall and herringbone parquet flooring in the main reception rooms, along with the charming rear courtyard garden originally designed by the RHS Chelsea medal winner, Heather Appleton.
