Eden House, MertonAbout this home

Constructed in 2007 and tucked away in a private position, Eden House is a handsome, stone built Georgian style farmhouse of c. 5,400 sq. ft that sits proudly within its plot of just over 3.5 acres. Amongst other things, it is the position of this house which really sets it apart with its wrap around, open views.

The house has been extremely well looked after, and the current owners have finished and presented the house to a high standard. There is a wonderful mix between attractive, traditional features and modern living. Highlights include the beautifully appointed kitchen/breakfast room, substantial boot/utility room, together with a large formal drawing room and dining room, all with benefitting from sash windows and French doors opening out to the garden. Across the first and second floor are six well-proportioned bedrooms and five bathrooms, together with a home office/bedroom seven accessed via a separate staircase.

The garden and grounds feel open and spacious, and benefit from a large, wrap around entertaining terrace. In addition, there is a detached annexe with sitting room / kitchenette area and bedroom and shower room, ideal for live in staff, working from home or gym, depending on needs. Former stables have been converted to useful stores and garaging with hydraulic ramps for car storage.
