Butler Avenue, West Harrow Village

THE PROPERTY

Once in a while an exceptional property comes up for sale, this being an impressive 1,000sq/ft flat forming the first floor of a detached Victorian property in desirable West Harrow Village. With direct access to a large private garden, high ceilings and tall windows, this flat offers a rare combination of character features and ample space. We highly recommend viewing if you are ready to proceed!

The private entrance opens in to a large ground floor hallway which hints at the grandeur of this building, the original staircase rising up past the large stained glass window to a long landing. Fully renovated in 2019 with a brand new kitchen, bathroom and boiler, the accommodation is more generous than many houses and well presented throughout, to include a fabulous open-plan 21' fitted kitchen/dining/family room with lots of light, plus a separate cosy lounge.

There are also three bedrooms allowing space to work from home, plus a bathroom with bath & separate shower. Offered for sale chain-free, the property also has a huge attic space, long 145 year lease, gas-fired central heating and a lovely, large private garden. Unusually this is accessed from within the flat and is landscaped, featuring areas of lawn, decking and gravelled patio to enjoy the seasons from.

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 cohesive community supported by a community forum, it is a lovely place to put down roots with excellent schools and nurseries including nearby Wetherby House on Butler Avenue (outstanding Ofsted) and fast access to the City via numerous public transport options including Harrow on the Hill Metropolitan/Chiltern Line station and also West Harrow (Met Line), both within minutes walk. Residents further enjoy the delights of the nearby Harrow on the Hill Conservation Area with its charming pubs, cocktail bars and restaurants plus many other green spaces.
