2 bedroom apartment

A splendid Kensington & Chelsea-style 1,367sq/ft apartment which forms the upper ground floor of this grand 1850s-built mansion house at the summit of Harrow on the Hill. Part of the protected village Conservation Area, this beautifully presented 2 bedroom, 2 bathroom home is truly unique, featuring high ceilings and extremely generous rooms sizes including the stunning 26 x 16 living room. This is likely to have been the ballroom, with its large period fireplace, intricate plaster mouldings, original timber internal shutters and tall doors to the Juliet balcony.

Amongst the other impressive features of this property are the handsome portico entrance to the building, large feature windows, a modern fully fitted kitchen, traditional-style bathroom suite with cast iron roll-top bath and both bedrooms are 15 wide with built-in storage and a contemporary en-suite shower room to Bedroom 1.  Outside there is a garage included along with parking for residents, plus the delightful communal gardens with well-tended lawns and a secluded patio to enjoy.  No expense has been spared on internal decorations or the exterior of the building in recent years, with significant investment made which will benefit the new owner.  

Harrow on the Hill offers a great sense of community and tranquility and is one of Greater Londons prettiest and best conserved villages.  It is world-famous for the presence of Harrow School,whose buildings dominate the historic High Street and were once home to important figures such  as Sir Winston Churchill.  With a choice of upmarket independent coffee bars, pubs and restaurants there is little reason to venture away, but practical needs are taken care of by a nearby Waitrose supermarket and the comprehensive Harrow town centre amenities.  Open spaces for recreation include many parks, walking routes and nearby Church Fields, along leisure facilities such as golf courses and a Vue Cinema.

Transport links are another great thing about the Hill, with a choice of nearby stations providing fast access to the City.  These include Harrow on the Hill Metropolitan/Chiltern Line (20 mins to Baker Street/11 mins to Marylebone) and South Harrow/Sudbury Hill Piccadilly Line stations, not to mention many local bus routes including a direct connection to Heathrow airport.  The area has many highly regarded state, private and church schools as well, including St Anselms Catholic Primary School, Orley Farm Preparatory School and John Lyon School for Boys within walking distance.  Truly an excellent lifestyle choice and we highly recommend viewing.
