Set within the Mapesbury Conservation Area, this ground-floor garden flat offers a rare combination of generous internal space and outdoor living. The 25 ft front reception with high ceilings and French doors floods the apartment with light, while a contemporary kitchen/diner opens through bi-folding doors onto a decked terrace and lawn — ideal for relaxed family life and entertaining.
There are three double bedrooms (two with built-in wardrobes) and a stylish family bathroom with both a freestanding bath and a walk-in shower. At 1,134 sq ft the layout feels more like a house than a typical flat, giving families or downsizers room to spread out. Local schools with strong Ofsted results and nearby Gladstone Park add practical appeal for households.
Practical points to note: the building dates from c.1900–1929 and walls are solid brick with assumed no insulation, which may mean future upgrading costs; the property has only one bathroom for three bedrooms; and tenure is not specified. Transport links are strong — Willesden Green (Jubilee, Zone 2) is within easy reach — and local shops, cafés and amenities are all nearby.
This is a good opportunity for buyers seeking substantial, characterful ground-floor accommodation with a private garden and easy access to central London. Expect some investment for energy-efficiency improvements and routine maintenance typical of period buildings.
