Set within the Harrow on the Hill Village Conservation Area, this two-bedroom Victorian cottage combines period charm with contemporary finishes. Solid oak flooring, a working Victorian fireplace and exposed beams retain authentic character, while a modern fitted kitchen and luxury bathroom bring everyday comfort. Its freehold tenure gives full ownership in a highly desirable enclave.
The house is compact by modern standards (approx. 561–651 sq ft reported) and is best suited to a small family or professional couple. The layout provides a generous lounge-diner that benefits from abundant natural light and an open-plan feel, plus two double bedrooms and a stylish bathroom. Gas central heating and fast broadband support comfortable, connected living.
Externally the property includes a private courtyard garden ideal for low-maintenance outdoor use, but the overall plot is very small. The home lies within walking distance of Harrow-on-the-Hill (Metropolitan) and South Harrow (Piccadilly) stations, excellent local schools and village amenities — strong points for commuters and families.
Buyers should note practical considerations: the cottage occupies a compact footprint, Council Tax Band E is above average, and being in a conservation area may limit external alterations. Parking and external space are limited by the small plot size. These factors are outweighed for those prioritising location, period detail and a low-maintenance garden in a well-connected part of Harrow.
