Full Details for 4 Bedroom Detached to rent in Egham, TW20 :
Barp View is an exceptional award winning and uniquely architected detached house. It was built in 1997 and is still lived in by the original owners. As much of the furniture was commissioned to fit the house design, the preference is to rent it out on a fully furnished basis. It is in a convenient location close to the National Trust area of Runnymede Park and Windsor Great Park whilst less than a 10 minute walk from Egham's mainline train station and village shops. It would ideally suit a family, who will appreciate the generously proportioned rooms and close proximity to both excellent state, private and International schooling as well as the security of an electric gated entrance and alarm system. There is gas central heating, double glazing throughout, and under floor heating heating in select rooms. Newly installed is a Hive remote management heating system. The stunning kitchen/breakfast room has bi-fold doors that give a lovely aspect over and lead onto the landscaped garden with several entertaining areas.
The house is situated close to the heart of the highly desirable village of Englefield Green that is located in a prominent position on the edge of Windsor Great Park and has become one of the most sought after locations outside of London and is synonymous with luxury housing. Although in close proximity to the capital, Englefield Green maintains a more rural feel with many surrounding parks and open spaces, with the River Thames and pleasure grounds around a mile away. The house is so well placed, it was rented by the support team of the Japanese Olympic rowing/kayaking team at around £5,250 per week and underwent their stringent government health, security and safety checks.
The area benefits from excellent transport links to London and the south east with easy access to the M25, M4 and M3. London Heathrow Airport (10 mins) and London Gatwick (35mins) are also within easy reach. Egham train station provides regular service to London Waterloo (35/40 mins).
Schools around the area include Eton College, Wellington College, TASIS, The ACS International School, Bishopsgate School as well as numerous other quality establishments. The area really is blessed with choice in this department.
The local area benefits from many international sporting venues including Guards Polo Club, Ascot Racecourse and Wentworth Golf Club.
