South Hill Private Estate, Harrow on the Hill

THE PROPERTY

Standing on a generous garden plot behind a wide frontage, this enchanting detached house is amongst the finest on the South Hill Private Estate. Enjoying a leafy 'Garden Suburb' setting moments walk from Orley Farm School, it should be appreciated that the 1920's 'Arts & Crafts' movement signaled a move toward a more welcoming architectural style focused on privacy and the enjoyment of generous garden plots, with all principal living and bedrooms facing toward this aspect rather than the street.

This is key to appreciating the unique appeal of Kingwell, a significant house recently renovated and expanded (2019) to create over 3,000sq/ft of space for family life with calming Skandi-style influences. Beautifully planned living areas seamlessly integrate both together and with the gardens, making this home a joy throughout the seasons. Ideal for an active lifestyle and with further possibilities for enlargement at first floor level (subject to consent), the house already offers 5 excellent bedrooms and 2 bathrooms upstairs, plus a further guest bedroom suite/family room on the ground floor.

Of further note is the wonderful 22' x 18' family kitchen/dining room with island unit and a wall of bi-folding doors to the garden. This adjoins the main 30' living room, a generous space again with doors to outside. Offered for sale chain-free, the property is full of modern conveniences such as a large utility room and underfloor heating to all bathrooms, with recent renovations to the services and roof ensuring a low maintenance home for years to come.

Outside the wide gravelled driveway leads to a double garage with EV-Charger, and the splendid gardens front and rear are a delight. To the front stands a mature magnolia tree (quite a sight in bloom) and to the rear is a fabulous family garden to enjoy with great privacy, a full-width terrace, large landscaped lawn and timber summerhouse for those moments of seclusion.

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.
