Set on a quiet street in the Bartholomew Conservation Area, this five-bedroom period home offers exceptional space and family flexibility. High ceilings, stained glass and original fireplaces give immediate character, while two reception rooms, a cellar and a loft room expand practical living. The east-facing, approx. 50 ft garden provides private outdoor space in central NW5.
The house suits a family seeking a spacious London home close to strong local schools and excellent transport links: Kentish Town Underground and Kentish Town West Overground are within walking distance. The layout supports multi-generational living or a work-from-home arrangement, with two bathrooms plus a separate WC and generous bedroom sizes throughout.
Buyers should note the property will benefit from updating in parts: there are signs of damp in the living room and overall modernization is needed to bring systems and finishes up to contemporary standards. Broadband speeds are very slow locally and council tax is described as quite expensive. Crime rates are above average for the area, which prospective buyers may want to consider.
This is a rare central-London opportunity to secure a large, character-rich home with significant scope to add value through careful refurbishment. For families prioritising schools, transport and generous interior proportions, the house offers a substantial canvas to create a long-term family residence.
