Orley Farm Road, South Hill Private Estate, Harrow on the Hill

THE PROPERTY

"Launch Event" Saturday 25th May | Please Call for your Appointment Time | This handsome double-fronted detached house stands proudly on a generous plot within the South Hill Avenue Conservation Area, ideally located minutes walk from Orley Farm Preparatory School. The pretty street enjoys the leafy appearance and distinctive 'Garden Suburb' atmosphere on which this favoured Private Estate was modelled, and combined with fast access to central London makes this an exceptionally pleasant and convenient place to live.

Built Circa 1921, this property holds great appeal for reasons beyond the classic 'Arts & Crafts' architecture, not least the delightful gardens found both front and rear. This is a bright and welcoming home ideal for family life and measuring some 2,500sq/ft, with three principle rooms found off the hallway to include a generous triple-aspect lounge, separate formal dining room and very comfortable large kitchen/dining room. Further, there is a small conservatory linking the house to additional rooms converted for use as a large study/games room plus further workspace, as well as a large covered utility area with gardeners W.C. to the other side.

The first floor landing delights with a large window seat featuring views of the garden, and in fact all views from within the house are equally charming. The two upper floors contain five bedrooms in total, with the master suite, a large second bedroom and family bathroom found on the first floor. The second floor has 3 further rooms of fairly even size, with a shower room ready to be re-commissioned. This much-loved house is well presented throughout, with further benefits including gas-fired central heating and mostly double glazed windows.

Outside is a deep front garden with large gravel driveway and car port. To the rear are beautiful well-kept gardens facing East and attractively laid out with areas of lawn, pathways, fruit trees and other planting. This enchanting house also impresses from the rear, with potential to extend in various ways, subject to obtaining consent.

This area of the Hill is favoured for its exclusivity and proximity to highly regarded schools, as well as the peaceful nature of the Private Estate. It is also highly convenient, being only a short walk from Sudbury Hill Piccadilly/Chiltern Line stations and with Harrow on the Hill Metropolitan/Chiltern Line station also nearby. The major road network is also accessible, with the M40/M25 taking you quickly to the London airports and also Home Counties.

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 & pub restaurants for entertaining, with a friendly, cohesive community.
