Village ambience with quick rail links and low-maintenance garden.
Freehold period cottage in Harrow on the Hill Conservation Area
A charming freehold cottage tucked into the Conservation Area of Harrow on the Hill, this two-bedroom end-of-terrace offers village ambience with practical space. The property benefits from a wider footprint than many similar cottages, with a separate lounge, generous kitchen/diner, utility area and useful attic storage accessed by a pull-down ladder.
The front bedroom enjoys a far-reaching outlook across the Hill, while a small paved courtyard garden provides low-maintenance outside space. Gas central heating and double glazing (installed post-2002) bring modern comfort alongside retained period features such as sash windows and exposed brickwork.
Buyers should note the property sits on a very small plot and has solid brick walls likely without insulation, reflected in an EPC rating of D (61). Council Tax is above average and on-street parking is controlled by a CPZ (Mon–Fri 10:00–14:00) though residents’ permits are available. Overall this chain-free cottage suits a small family or couple seeking a characterful, well-located home with scope to personalise rather than a move-in perfect, low-energy dwelling.
Location is a strong asset: village shops, pubs, Waitrose and green spaces are within easy reach, and Harrow on the Hill station is a 12–15 minute walk providing fast links into central London — a real plus for commuters.
