Set on a tree-lined stretch of Harlesden Road, this substantial Edwardian semi-detached home offers 1,804 sq ft of flexible family space with four bedrooms and three reception rooms. The house retains authentic period details — high ceilings, bay windows, covings and fireplaces — giving a rare base for a sympathetic restoration. Located a short walk from Willesden Green (Jubilee Line) and Roundwood Park, it combines transport convenience with nearby green space and several Good-rated primary schools.
The property is sold freehold and presents clear potential to extend on the ground floor and into the large loft, subject to planning permission (STPP). A decent rear plot and large loft make the house appealing to buyers seeking to add value or create a modern family layout. Services are straightforward: mains gas boiler and radiators, double glazing and fast broadband/mobile connectivity.
Honest drawbacks: the house needs renovation throughout and the solid brick walls are assumed uninsulated, so budgeting for thermal improvements is likely. The wider area registers high crime and significant deprivation metrics, and the home’s ex-council history may influence market perception. Buyers should allow for structural and refurbishment costs, and obtain surveys before committing.
For families or investors confident in renovation projects, this Edwardian property offers strong upside through refurbishment and extension. Its size, original character and location close to transport and parks create a foundation for a comfortable, substantially improved home once modernisation works are completed.
