Summary - 16 WEST DRIVE HARROW HA3 6TS
3 bed 2 bath Detached
Large 1930s detached home with 228ft private garden and extension potential STPP.
Approximately 2,207 sq ft across three/four bedrooms and three receptions
A substantially sized 1930s detached family home on a private West Drive plot, offering versatile living across approximately 2,207 sq ft. The house is arranged over multiple levels with three principal reception rooms, a modern fitted kitchen with utility, ground-floor guest bedroom and WC — useful for multigenerational living or a home office. The property has been well maintained and presents immediate family comfort combined with scope to personalise.
The standout feature is the rear garden, an exceptional 228ft of private, mature greenery that provides a rare outdoor asset for this area. Off-street parking for multiple cars and a two-storey garage increase practicality for families with several vehicles or hobbies that need storage. Local transport links are strong and a number of highly regarded state and independent schools are within easy reach, making the location attractive to buyers prioritising education and commute options.
There is potential to extend subject to planning permission (STPP), but note the house falls within the West Drive and Bellfield Avenue Conservation Area – which can restrict design and scale of alterations. The property was constructed in the 1930s with solid brick walls (no confirmed cavity insulation) and double glazing of unknown installation date; buyers should factor in possible thermal/upgrading works. Council tax is described as quite expensive.
In short: this is a large, well-proportioned family home in a quiet, well-connected neighbourhood with an exceptional garden and clear opportunity to add value, balanced by conservation-area constraints and potential retrofit costs for insulation and long-term running expenses.
