This substantial four-bedroom semi-detached house offers an established family layout across two floors and about 1,829 sq ft of living space. Rooms are well-proportioned, with a large 17-ft kitchen, up to four reception rooms and a principal bedroom with a dressing room — all arranged for everyday family life and entertaining. The south‑east facing rear garden and off-street parking with a garage add practical outdoor space and vehicle convenience.
Built in the 1930s–40s, the property retains period character such as bay windows and high ceilings but will benefit from updating in parts. The double glazing is older (installed before 2002) and walls are original solid brick (insulation not assumed), so buyers should expect potential energy-efficiency upgrades and possible refurbishment to modern standards.
There is clear scope to increase space subject to usual consents — loft or side extension potential is noted, which could add value for growing families. The house sits in an affluent, well-connected NW11 location with good local schools, green spaces and fast broadband, while crime risk and flood risk are low.
Do note: council tax is described as quite expensive, and any extension or major works will require planning permission and associated costs. Overall this is a roomy, characterful family home offering immediate usability with sensible investment potential for improvement and enlargement.
