Merton Road, West Harrow

THE PROPERTY

Requiring Modernisation | With a fabulous garden and wide footprint, this interesting chalet-style semi-detached house offers great potential to extend and create a substantial family home. Perfect if you seek a project house to make your own and quietly located in a favoured road close to Whitmore High School, also featuring a detached garage with driveway parking.

The ground floor comprises a large hallway with 2 spacious living rooms, kitchen and bathroom off, plus a conservatory addition. Upstairs are 2 surprisingly large bedrooms with one having an en-suite W.C. Similar homes nearby have been well extended via large additions to the side, rear and attic so it is expected that similar changes could be made, subject to planning approval.

Offered for sale chain-free, other benefits include gas central heating (not tested), double glazed windows, a deep front garden and a mature garden to the rear which will delight any family or keen gardener. An appealing opportunity to acquire an affordable Freehold house with considerable potential and in a well regarded location.

Nearby West Harrow Village has all the hallmarks of an Urban Village, being situated only 10 miles from London with historic architecture, its own station, park, shops and schools. A lovely place to put down roots, with fast access to the City via numerous public transport options making the location so convenient. Residents also enjoy the delights of the nearby Harrow on the Hill Conservation Area and other green spaces.

There is also good access to the centre of Harrow with its multiple shopping, leisure and transport facilities including a Vue Cinema and Harrow on the Hill Metropolitan/Chiltern Line station. South Harrow Piccadilly Line station is also accessible, with many highly rated schools nearby. The M40/M25 is a short drive away, giving access to the major road network and all London airports.
