4 bedroom semi-detached house

A substantial 4 bedroom, 2 bathroom period house of some grandeur, enjoying a secluded setting within a private enclave on the Lower Slopes of Harrow on the Hill.  Built between the wars by an architect for his daughter, great care and attention to detail can be seen in many aspects of this handsome property which provides generous accommodation with high ceilings, interesting character features, a garage and fabulous gardens. 

Approached by a private drive shared only with other residents, this well presented home has a large reception hall and excellent living space with an attractive layout including a guest cloakroom, 2 spacious reception rooms and a fitted kitchen/diner with cream-painted units.  Upstairs are 4 large bedrooms plus the family bathroom and a separate shower room, with a further staircase then leading to an original attic room.  This would make an ideal study, play/hobby space or possibly 5th bedroom with some work.

The secluded gardens are a particular feature of the property, being arranged in 2 large sections with the rearmost partly used as a vegetable garden.  This charming property retains many original details including fireplaces, deep skirtings, cornicing and architraves which provide so much period charm and viewing is essential to appreciate both the secret location and everything else this desirable house offers.

Roxborough Avenue is a sought after location forming part of the local Conservation Area, a few minutes walk from the historic village centre and with Church Fields open space nearby.  The village of Harrow on the Hill provides an oasis of calm within the environs of North-West London, yet you are also close to the Metropolitan/Chiltern Line station at Harrow on the Hill for a fast air-conditioned commute to the City.  With a choice of upmarket coffee shops, cocktail bars, pubs and restaurants to hand there is little reason to venture away, but practical needs are taken care of by a choice of major supermarkets and the comprehensive Harrow town centre amenities making this a best of both worlds location.

The area is also known for its highly regarded state, private and church schools including St Anselms Catholic Primary School just around the corner, plus Orley Farm Preparatory School, John Lyon School and Whitmore High School & Sixth Form all within walking distance.
