Poplar Grove, New Malden, KT3

This exquisite home has been designed by Bo Fentum Design, a London based interior design studio. The fabulous ‘hub’ of the house is the kitchen, dining and family room. The room has a distinctively Japandi feel with Fired Earth Stone floor tiles, underfloor heating, integrated speakers and sliding doors to the garden. The kitchen is fitted with natural wood and polished white cupboards, integrated appliances and a large Smeg range oven. To one side the panelled wall is sound absorbing whilst discreet pocket doors close the kitchen from the rest of the house.

The reception room is at the front of the property and has a pretty, original fireplace with feature tiling, and plantation shutters across the windows. The ceiling has been wallpapered here, to create a cosy and calming space.

The west facing Japanese style garden has been beautifully designed by Eve Hacking Garden Design. Through sliding doors from the kitchen leads you to the London Stone patio and the well maintained garden filled with plenty of planting including Hydrangeas and Acers, an irrigation system and outdoor lighting.

There are three bedrooms on the first floor, all of which are flooded with natural light either being directly east or west facing, and have plantation shutters. Two of the bedrooms are spacious double sizes and have the original fireplaces in, with their own feature tiling. There is a family bathroom on this floor.

To the top floor is the wonderful principal bedroom suite where there is great attention to detail from the floral Liberty wallpaper to the storage bench seat under one window. Plenty of storage (shelving and hanging) fill one wall, along with eaves space behind it. The bathroom is fitted with a freestanding oval bath, whilst the sink and WC in separate.

Poplar Grove is conveniently located being less than a nine-minute walk to New Malden station and high street. It is in the catchment area for excellent local and independent schools. Richmond Park and Wimbledon Common are close to hand offering picturesque open spaces to enjoy nature at its best.
