6 bedroom detached house for sale

This spectacular Queen Anne Grade II Listed detached house is one of the largest historic homes in Brentford. Situated within the prestigious Butts conservation area, the property provides over 5,500 sq ft of accommodation arranged across four floors. It boasts both an indoor swimming pool, opening directly onto the garden, and a newly built spa complex.

The house is notably quiet and benefits from an east–west aspect, providing consistent natural light throughout the day. Its position within the conservation area ensures long-term protection of both setting and outlook. The surrounding streets benefit from a close-knit neighbourly community.

Four gracious reception rooms, each unique in character, lend themselves equally to formal entertaining and everyday use. Original features preserved throughout, including fireplaces, timber floors and traditional sash windows, sit comfortably alongside later additions that have been introduced seamlessly, without disrupting the character or proportions of the original building.

Bedroom accommodation is arranged across the upper floors, with six principal bedrooms supported by additional rooms that can be used as studies, dressing rooms or private sitting rooms. The lower ground floor provides further utility space and adaptable storage, with a large original wine cellar.

The ground floor leads naturally into the garden, allowing the house to open outwards rather than turn in on itself. At the rear is a beautiful glass-enclosed swimming pool with continuous vistas over the garden that can be enjoyed while swimming.

The garden is one of the defining features of the house. Fully enclosed by original walls, it offers a level of privacy and maturity that is increasingly rare in London, particularly at this scale. The sense is not of a garden added to a house, but of a house designed to sit comfortably within its own idyllic setting.

Planting has been carefully considered and established over time, creating structure, depth and seasonal variation without feeling overworked. The garden is peaceful with mature trees and shrubs providing natural screening, offering different ‘rooms’ for private gatherings. At the same time, its open spaces offer ample opportunity for outdoor dining, and entertaining on a larger scale.

Upper Butts is one of Brentford’s most historically significant residential streets, dating back to the 18th century. Brentford itself has seen considerable regeneration in recent years, combining historic character with new cultural, retail and riverside amenities.

The property is well located for Brentford Station, the Grand Union Canal, and the neighbouring areas of Chiswick, Kew and Richmond. It is in easy reach of a wide selection of highly regarded schools, with excellent direct transport links to Central London and Heathrow airport.
