Description:Twickenham is named for a a quaint village on the Thames nestled between Richmond and Wimbledon where the character and charm of England flourishes. The owners fell in love with the people and the area of Twickenham while on their honeymoon about 20 years ago. Their favorite dining spot was a small pub located in a cellar next to Mick Jagger’s apartment where the young Rolling Stones spent a lot of time before they became famous. As they toured the area and explored the grand old manors and castles, their love for one another grew in their hearts as the scale and form of the architecture and beautiful furnishings and fixtures became etched upon their minds . Years later when their dream of building their own family home was becoming a reality, they decided to model this home after the style and character of the grand homes discovered while on their honeymoon. And thus after several years of planning and construction and exciting shopping trips to England, Twickenham House was completed. The current original owners raised their four children in this home, and through the years the walls and wonderful grounds have seen much love and laughter shared between friends and family. Their hope is that you too will come to Twickenham House with your family and friends and enjoy the peaceful and loving atmosphere as much as they have. This beautiful and extremely well-equipped mountain estate home, with 11,000 square feet of living space on 4 levels and 560 acres of beautiful land leading up to and encompassing the peak of Phoenix Mountain, represents the finest in private mountain living!
