House For Sale £2,000,000
PROPERTY DETAILS
Launch Event | Saturday 27th May | Please Call for your Personal Appointment | A distinctive and imposing detached house, built in the Gothic Revival style during the mid-19th Century. Set amongst other fabulous homes on London Road at the summit of exclusive Harrow on the Hill, the property has a small annexe, garage, parking and gardens. Views from this vantage point are an unexpected delight, with beautiful woodland behind.
Rich with details from this important architectural period, this handsome property impresses with complete authenticity. Evident from the fabulous full-length reception hallway with beautifully-aged encaustic-tiled floor to the grand proportions of each high-ceilinged room, this is enhanced by the presence of tall timber shutters, elegant cornicing and original open fireplaces.
With an overall size of some 2,750sq/ft, this splendid 5 bedroom, 2 bathroom house provides versatile accommodation suitable for the modern family's lifestyle, including as it does a 1-up,1-down annexe with independent entrance, perfect for an au pair or visiting family. The generous dining/family room is open-plan to the kitchen and leads to a large side conservatory off. Other details of interest include the wide exposed floorboards visible in places and gas-fired central heating.
Locally Listed, the building is described as being "..very distinctive, largely due to its stone dressings and two battlements style, with stepped, unevenly sized and levelled gables facing London Road. This style is a reminder of the Grade II Listed Old Schools building which is of a similar date and is within the Harrow School conservation area. There are stone framed windows and a lancet front door. The side addition works well, since it is lightweight and unobtrusive." You will also note the castle-like parapets, pointed Gothic-arched entries, steeply pitched roof and front-facing gable.
Outside are beautiful landscaped gardens, well planted with a lawn and circular patio placed to take advantage of sunlight. It is thought that potential exists to develop the annexe area with established tool store and canopied entrance, subject to planning consent. To the front is an ample driveway, gravelled and sufficient for 3 or 4 vehicles and which also provides access to a single garage.
Harrow on the Hill village Conservation Area is an 'oasis' 10 miles from London, with a unique atmosphere and great road and rail connections to both London and the Home Counties. From its origins as a mediaeval settlement and the seat of the famous Harrow School, it further rewards with its many green spaces known only to locals, independent coffee shops, cocktail bars & restaurants for entertaining, and a friendly, cohesive community.
The historic buildings of the world-famous Harrow School are part of the picturesque Hill. Harrow School shares its first class facilities with Hill residents who can enjoy membership of its Fitness Club with state of the art gym and 25 meter swimming pool, lawn tennis club and golf club. The Friends of Harrow School caters for those interested in the Arts with free concerts, plays and lectures. The Harrow Hill Trust organizes community events and guided walks.
