PROPERTY DETAILS
A notably large and handsome double-fronted house of some 4,000sq/ft, in an exceptional setting within the gated Mount Park Estate on Harrow on the Hill. With ample parking, double garage and level rear garden, the sylvan cul-de-sac setting and impressive proportions truly set this house apart. A rare chance to acquire a substantial family home within walking distance of Orley Farm Prep School and John Lyon School & Sixth Form for Boys & Girls.
For sale with no onward chain and now requiring cosmetic updating, the welcoming central entrance has all 5 principal living rooms leading off. This lends an appealingly modern and open-plan feel to the interior, with the sizable accommodation spread over only 2 floors. Upstairs, a wide full-width landing leads to 6 large bedrooms and 2 full bathrooms, with a large attic space above. Homes of such a size are rare, and neighbouring properties demonstrate that further potential may exist, subject to obtaining any necessary consents.
Additional features include timber parquet flooring to much of the ground floor, modern double glazed windows and gas-fired central heating. The value of this desirable, protected and private location can be appreciated in many ways, being within a safe gated Private Estate attractive to families and convenient for local and overseas travel, with fast access to London via numerous rail services (Metropolitan, Chiltern & Piccadilly Lines) plus excellent road links (M40/M25/M1) and easy access to all the London airports making Harrow on the Hill an uncommonly well-connected place.
Harrow on the Hill village is an 'oasis' 10 miles from London, with a unique atmosphere. 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, with a friendly, cohesive community.
The historic buildings of the world-famous Harrow School are part of the picturesque Hill. The 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, whilst the Harrow Hill Trust organizes community events and guided walks.
