Located just 0.4 miles from Twickenham Station and within 200 metres of the high street this property offers three bedrooms and accommodation arranged over four levels.

There are three bedrooms, a modern family bathroom, beautiful kitchen, dining room and a large living room with magnificent open fireplace. The property further benefits from a basement reception room/bedroom, second floor cloakroom and large terrace with direct river views together with a patio garden which wraps around the house.

Simply describing the property is not enough as it has to be experienced physically to truly appreciate the magical feel of both the house and the location.

The Old Brick Yard, Twickenham

Located in the heart of Twickenham this stylish warehouse conversion is set on a peaceful private road within a mews style development.

The Old Brick Yard from Parkgate Estate Agents

Located just 0.2 miles from Twickenham Station and within 200 metres of the high street everything within this property is of the highest finish and quality. Refurbished fully by the current owners the property was previously used as a brickyard and has had various commercial/manufacturing uses throughout its history before being converted into a stunning home.

The property is approached through a private courtyard garden which can also be used as off-street parking. You enter the building on the ground floor and are immediately transported to another world.

With attention to detail wherever you look, simply describing this property does not do justice to the sympathetic conversion the current owners have achieved. With three bedrooms, three bathrooms, kitchen diner, utility room, living room, study and playroom the property offers spacious accommodation arranged over four floors.

From the handmade oak faced plywood kitchen cupboard doors to the polished concrete floors, there are areas of interest throughout the property. Exposed brick walls nod to the original usage of the building which has been carefully crafted into a wonderful family home.

Large cast iron radiators, exposed joists and surface mounted electrics are beautifully married with modern fittings, Corian worktops, underfloor heating and double-glazed windows to provide a practical home with historic charm throughout.

The feature double height Crittal-style windows allow the property to bathe in natural light whilst still maintaining excellent privacy.

It is a pleasure to work with Parkgate. They have supported us all the way through from booking our initial viewing all the way through to managing the rental we are in now. Mark Langham was so quick to help us with our application, provide feedback from landlord on our approval, and get us through the process to secure the tenancy.Jonathan is our managing agent, and he regularly check in to see how things are going and are quick to respond with any issues. They have also scheduled maintenance and painting for us and have made recommendations and advocated on our behalf to the landlord for additional maintenance and improvements.

I've used Parkgate in Richmond for over 15 years now. They have always found excellent tenants for my properties. They never fail to be friendly, supportive and very professional. Any queries or concerns I may have are instantly responded to. Can highly recommend them.
I cooperate with the agency as a tenant and completely pleased with the service of its agents. They are always ready to help with any property issue as soon as possible, promptly reply and react to any kind of enquiry. Special thanks to Jola for her pleasant communication style!

We purchased a house recently with Parkgate by a perfect service. I was in contact with Jonathan and Klaudia who are really professionals. They were easy to reach, fast acting and especially fair and honest. They were so straight forward that we managed the completion within a very short period. I reached them so easy whenever I need to talk over the phone or in person. I will never forget Klaudia’s good luck to us at the first viewing of property. We decided to buy at that first day and all was done so fast. They carried out all paper works so smooth and clear. I would highly recommend Parkgate. Thanks again to Jonathan and Klaudia.

Really pleased with Parkgate. They manage my flat in Richmond. Because they're local they actually visit the flat regularly and use trusted local suppliers to deal with issues / maintenance etc. I find they are a reliable and easy agency to deal with, which reduces stress. Strongly recommend!

Very responsive, informative and always kind people. We didn't have much time, but they helped us with creating some time in their agenda and squeezing us in. We rented our place just in time, thanks to them.

Parkgate has been my agent of choice for a number of years now and has secured good tenants for my properties. They are hard working, respond in a timely manner and best of all are always friendly rather than aggressive or overbearing, which is the case with many of their competitors.

Excellent service throughout.We rented a property that they manage for 4 years.Parkgate team is very professional and approachable. Way better than dealing with a big agency, they offer a more personal approach, always available and willing to solve any issues.From the tenancy agreement to handing the property back, it has been a real pleasure working with them.

I have had an eight year relationship with Parkgate, in fact they originally sold my flat to me 12 years ago in Putney. Their service and professionalism is unrivalled. They managed the leasing of my flat from 2014 and assisted me to negotiate the successful sale just now in 2022. Chris has been there throughout with an open door and no request too trivial to assist. Klaudia negotiated my sale and worked with amazing tenacity throughout. I would not hesitate to recommend Parkgate to anyone in the Putney/Richmond area, they know their stuff.

We have had a wonderful experience with Parkgate and would highly recommend them. Chris was brilliant on the valuation - what we liked is he was totally honest about our chances of selling and gave us the positives and negatives about our property (such as facing a council estate!). Other agents tend to just gush over the good bits which is great, but actually not that helpful.The selling process was great - we were given good feedback from the viewings and got the price we wanted within about 8 weeks.We really have nothing but praise for Klaudia and Chris, it's been really enjoyable, easy and stress free and we will be recommending Parkgate to all our friends in the area and our building.***** Thank you! *****
