17 Hartington Road, Chiswick, W4 3TL

The Property comprises a large detached single-family dwelling on the southern end of Hartington Road. The house was built in the Victorian era – circa 1880 and is currently broken up providing a large house and 1st and 2nd floor apartment, both, joint and individually accessed with separate utility supplies. The sale demise offers one of the largest private gardens in Chiswick of circa 1 acre. The property rises from ground, first and second floors and sits predominantly on a rectangular plot of land. The garden directly abuts the River Thames with over 90 ft of river frontage as well as its own private stepped access down to the river bank. The existing house is 4,012 sq ft GIA including the detached garage. Planning permission has been obtained to convert the property and extend through a series of ground and 1st floor extensions including a large basement creating a 7,000 sq ft, 5 bedroom family home.

Hartington Road runs from north to south on the northern bank mof the River Thames. The road is characterised by large detached houses, some with swimming pools and tennis courts and large half-acre gardens. Premiums are afforded to the properties on the western side of the road with direct river frontage to the Thames. The road connects with Chiswick Bridge to the south – a route out of London via the A316 joining with the M3 – offering direct links to the south coast.

Planning consent for a multiple dwelling scheme was attempted in the past, looking to see a continuation of the row of river fronting houses on Chiswick Staithe along the rear of the garden at 17 Hartington Road. The proposed scheme was recommended for approval by the local authority at, however, members voted against at planning committee. Planning Permission Ref: P/2021/2827 for the construction of 4 x private houses was refused at appeal by the planning inspectorate in September 2023. This refused application contained a proposal net saleable area of circa. 14,000 sq ft (NSA). Details of the reasons for refusal and pre application response from LB Hounslow can be found on the property dataroom. Subsequent to the appeal dismissal, no further discussions were had with Hounslow to reduce the size of the scheme or to reach a compromise in submitting an application with design amendments.
