Large renovated five-bedroom house with parking, gardens and basement potential.
Five bedrooms across 2,812 sq ft — substantial family living space
This substantial five-bedroom freehold on Fitzjohns Avenue offers 2,812 sq ft of newly refurbished family living in one of NW3's most sought-after streets. The house combines period character — bay windows, high ceilings and an Edwardian façade — with contemporary comforts including double glazing and air conditioning. A gated front garden provides secure off-street parking for two cars and an enclosed rear patio gives private outdoor space in central Hampstead.
Internally the layout works well for family life: two reception rooms, a generous eat-in kitchen that opens to the garden, guest WC and excellent built-in storage throughout. Four double bedrooms and two bathrooms are currently arranged over the upper floors, one en-suite. The property is presented move-in ready following recent refurbishment, so significant immediate works aren’t required for standard occupation.
Notable positives include planning permission already granted for a large basement (application 2017/1047/P), offering clear scope to increase usable space and value subject to budget and build disruption. Practical points to note: there are only two bathrooms for five bedrooms, which may lead to morning bottlenecks for larger households. Council tax in the area is very expensive and running costs should be factored in. Crime levels are average for the area.
Situated within walking distance of Hampstead Village amenities, outstanding local schools and Hampstead Heath, the house is aimed at families seeking generous interior space, secure parking and excellent transport links (Northern, Jubilee and Metropolitan lines nearby). The property represents a rare combination of period presence, modern refurbishment and development potential in NW3.
