House For Sale £475,000
Are you looking for a homely cottage by a greenbelt area within commuting distance of London? It seems pretty incredible, but this 3-bedroom cottage in the lively, safe London Borough of Harrow really does provide all this, and for the affordable price of £475,000, it’s a real bargain for a young family looking to live in a town near the capital, with plenty of greenspace and local schools and amenities.
The house is a mixture of modern and rustic, with exposed beams in the living room, and a modern conservatory around the back. Two of the three bedrooms have integrated wardrobes, with the master bedroom also having an en-suite, so there’s lots of space for the family to spread into. The rooms are all a good size and very light with plenty of windows and mostly modern decor. It is in a good state as it is, however if you're looking to invest in a property, you could convert the loft to make another bedroom and add a small extension, which would bring it’s value up to £650,000 at time of writing.
The property is a freehold, and with no onward chain, we expect this property to be snapped up very soon, as properties in this area have been in very high demand in recent months.
Location and Transport Links
Harrow is a town with plenty of greenspace on the outskirts of London, within the boundary of the M25. This is a lovely area for anyone looking to regularly commute or travel into London, with the Overground service running from the tube station 6 minutes walk from the property. Located in Zone 5, the Overground service passes through every 15 minutes, and takes you to London Euston in 40 minutes.
The property also comes with it’s own driveway, making access to the rest of the country easy, with the closest motorway junction (M1, Junction 5) a 6 mile drive.
Nearby Amenities
Chantry Road is based on the edge of a large greenbelt area, making it ideal for those who like to enjoy nature, whilst also only a 6 minute walk to an underground station.
There’s lots to do in the local area, with playing fields, a cricket club, sports centre, swimming pool, and arts centre all within walking distance. Harrow also has a lively calendar of festivals, fêtes and events running throughout the year, so it’s a great area if you value getting your fill of culture and community vibes. There are multiple historical buildings and museums, the closest being Headstone Manor, a 1 mile walk away from the property.
For groceries, there’s a large Morrisons about half a mile away from the property, near a dentist’s surgery and a medical centre. There’s also an off-licence around the corner from the property for any urgent essentials. About a mile away from the property there is a high street on Uxbridge Road, which has plenty of highly rated restaurants and cafes, as well as beauticians, post office, pharmacy and opticians. In case you don’t find everything you’re looking for here, there are two other high streets within two miles on Bridge Street and High Road, which are similarly thriving.
The property is particularly close to a garden centre, which will come in handy with the property’s sizeable front and back gardens.
The property is a 2 minute walk from a number of schools including Hatch End High School, rated Good by Ofsted and Shaftesbury High School, a special needs school rated Outstanding by Ofsted. There’s St Teresa’s, a Catholic primary school and nursery in the same area with a Good rating, or Pinner Park, a secular primary school with Outstanding rating within 16 minute’s walk.
The London Borough of Harrow was recently named as the second lowest crime rate borough in London, so you know you can relax once you’ve finished your commute and made it home.
Central Heating
Gas central heating, double glazing. EPC rating D (slightly higher than the national average), with potential for B. Quickest way to improve this would be through insulating the walls and flooring.
Room by Room
The living room has rustic charm with exposed beams & fireplace, whilst also having a good amount of light provided by its two windows and modern decor. The kitchen is a good size, with a gas stove and integrated oven and grill. It could use some modernisation however it is in good condition and doesn’t need a refurbish.
The conservatory is very bright and well built, so it’s nice and airy without getting too cold in the winter months. This could be used as a dining room or a playroom for children. French doors lead to the back garden which has a decking suitable for summer barbeques.
Upstairs there are 3 good sized bedrooms, the master bedroom has a small ensuite with a shower.
Master bedroom, 4.42m x 3.05m + ensuite and built in wardrobe
Double bedroom, 2.13m x 3.47m + built in wardrobe
