Toad Hall is set on a large mature plot with approximately 70’ direct river frontage onto the River Thames. It forms one of 46 properties on this tranquil island with pedestrian access that adds to its charm and peaceful ambiance.
Hamhaugh Island is a small friendly private island with a strong community feel, clustered around a central green, which is an attractive and ideal venue for those annual neighbourly get togethers. The island was originally used as a weekend retreat for those wishing to escape the hustle and bustle of London, divided into camping plots, with the tents being later replaced by timber structures, which over the years have been replaced and grown to provide substantial and some very palatial permanent homes, yet this has not detracted from its tranquillity or the spirt of island living. Toad Hall, has been extended over the years whilst still retaining its charm and original character, today the accommodation extends to 2308 sq.ft (214.4 sq.m) set over two floors. The rooms are of generous proportions and offer an adaptable layout. As can be seen from the floor plan overleaf, a conservatory has been added, making a useful entrance porch and opens into the original portion of the home that provides ample accommodation with a wonderful riverside living room stretching across the full width. This has two bay windows and patio doors to take full advantage of the views and opening onto a delightful covered veranda, so you can enjoy being the outside in all weathers and for those chillier evenings retreat back inside and curl up in front of the open brick fireplace. In addition, there is a separate dining room, a kitchen overlooking the large front garden, three double bedrooms and a large bathroom. The first floor provides a 35' studio room that runs the length of the house, with a toilet to one end. This room would make a fabulous master bedroom with en-suite bathroom or could be potential be split into separate rooms. The property does require modernisation and offers an exciting opportunity as a refurbishment or redevelopment project.
The gardens are an outstanding feature of the home, extending to approximately 0.23 acre with a large front garden extending to approximately 99’ being extensively laid to lawn with established shrub beds and enclosed by timber fencing. The riverside garden leads down to a concrete landing stage with a 70’ river frontage including a slipway.
Parking: There is a tandem parking space with room for two vehicles in the secure private gated residents' car park opposite the lock gates.
