THE PROPERTY
"Launch Event" Saturday 13th June | Please Call for your Appointment Time | A magnificent chain-free apartment with beautiful, stylish new interior of some 1,500sq/ft, lovely views over the village and direct access to delightful gardens. Situated on an upper floor in the heart of this historic area, the property has just been updated to a fine, luxurious standard and includes a Share of Freehold.
Very few homes offer this combination of space, versatility, newly refurbished condition and character within the Conservation Area, this property being the size of a house with the further benefit that all 3 bedrooms are both double-size and also en-suite with brand new bathrooms.
Additionally, the kitchen is also brand new with further benefits including expensive timber and tiled flooring, gas-fired central heating and an entryphone system. Owned and managed by the residents, good care has been taken of this historic building in recent years, with highlights including a new roof and exterior decor to limit outgoings.
Outside, the extensive well kept gardens are another lovely feature, accessed via external stairs from the apartment and nicely secluded offering plenty of spaces to relax and enjoy the peaceful natural surroundings. This property also features additional basement storage space, ideal for keeping bicycles and household items.
Overall, the apartment provides great versatility and surprising space which is hard to match at this price point. If you seek size, character and convenience within the exclusive setting of Harrow on the Hill, we unreservedly recommend viewing this unique property.
When you buy on the Hill you acquire so much more than a home, as the peaceful ambience, historic architecture and friendly community provides daily delights. From here you can walk different routes to Harrow on the Hill Metropolitan/Chiltern Line station in around 15 minutes, giving fast access to London.
The Castle Pub just up West Street is a true gem as is The White Horse on Middle Road, with other independent coffee shops, cocktail bars and restaurants to hand on the historic High Street. There is an excellent Waitrose supermarket at the foot of the Hill and 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.
