Set on one of Hampstead’s most desirable roads, this double-fronted red-brick house delivers substantial family living across roughly 7,529 sq ft. The property offers seven double bedrooms, five bathrooms and multiple reception rooms arranged over lower-ground, ground, first and second floors — ideal for large or multi-generational families. Mature, manicured rear gardens, a gated carriage driveway and an integral garage complete the exterior offering and provide excellent indoor–outdoor flow from the ground-floor living spaces.
The accommodation includes a modern fitted kitchen/breakfast room, utility, library/drawing room, dining room, home office and generous reception rooms with large windows and high ceilings. There is also extensive storage: large loft rooms and a substantial cellar. The house’s scale and layout create clear scope to reconfigure, update or extend (subject to planning) to suit contemporary family living or to create separate suites.
Buyers should note this is a period property constructed before 1900 with solid brick walls (assumed uninsulated) and double glazing installed before 2002. These features mean some upgrade work — insulation, window replacement and potential heating system optimisation — may be desirable to improve energy performance. Council tax is very expensive and ongoing maintenance of a large, mature garden and period fabric will be a material cost.
Overall, this is a rare, large-scale family home in a very affluent, low-crime area with excellent local schools and fast broadband. It suits a household seeking space, privacy and further potential, or a buyer prepared to invest in modernisation to maximise long-term value.
