Blissful Oasis, by Veeve

Steps from Twickenham riverfront and a stone’s throw from the eponymous stadium considered the spiritual home of rugby, the only scrum at this exquisite four-bedroom family home will be the race to the blissful garden. Wondrously idyllic and abundant in scale, it’s an enthralling private oasis to truly make the most of those never-ending summer days. Fortunately, that exhilarating mood is adroitly preserved inside by an accordant colour scheme that deftly showcases this property’s munificent charms...

Brimming in dark navy decorum, the open-plan living area and dining room is adroitly zoned to provide an elegant mix of ease and light formality. Lilac and yellow bring an extra dash of colour to the lounge, where a majestic fireplace nods towards this property’s Victorian heritage. Illuminated with natural light, the graceful dining table offers a tantalising glimpse across the impressive garden beyond. The kitchen is also adroitly at one with the outdoor space where a glass ceiling allows cascades of light to lend a bright and spacious feel to this convivial setting. Fully equipped with all key amenities, it even offers a small breakfast bar perfect for early birds eager to enjoy the sunrise.

The sense of capaciousness also transcends the sleeping quarters, starting in the principal bedroom which effortlessly relaxes with its pastel hues, plush king-sized bed and soothing tropical plants. Revelling in its traditional features, the room offers ample storage space and amiable views across a tree-lined street. Soft baby blue tones enshrine a sense of calm in the twin bedroom, adorned with a playful parrot wall hanging. It’s a reminder of one of one of south London’s more unexpected claims to fame: the parakeets that cheerfully chirp away in the trees.

A mindful atmosphere pervades the third bedroom, pacifying with its gentle mint hues and concentrative desk area. Guests staying in the attic room can truly feel at one with the garden courtesy of a majestic rooftop terrace. Nestled under the eaves with a reposeful double bed, this exalted top-floor hideaway adopts a strikingly minimalist tone and boasts an impressive en-suite bathroom replete with a private shower and toilet. Hosting a bath and shower, nautical notes in the family bathroom pay homage to a yacht club yards from the front door.

However, the final word really rests with that garden. Enveloped by verdant trees that provide a welcome sheen of privacy, a sweeping manicured lawn summons you towards a delightfully secluded seating area. It’s a soulful environment in which to enjoy a refreshing aperitif before embarking on a sunset stroll towards Twickenham’s thriving pub scene...
