Description

Guide Price £2,000,000 to £2,200,000

Architecturally curated by CLAI Group, this grand five-bedroom house has been reimagined with a meticulous eye for detail and design. Set on the borders of Hampstead, it is one of a handful of detached lateral houses, unfolding across nearly 2,700 square feet, including a cedar-clad garden studio. Beyond its original front façade, the entire home has been meticulously rebuilt from the ground up.

Step into a wide entrance hall with a carefully composed visual axis that draws the eye toward a mature tree at the end of the landscaped garden, a moment of calm that sets the tone for the rest of the home. To the rear, a generous open-plan kitchen spans close to 12 metres in width. This space flows seamlessly into the dining and reception areas, forming an intuitive setting for modern living and entertaining. Oversized, ultra-slimline sliding doors open onto a south-west-facing garden, effortlessly blending indoor and outdoor life. Picture windows create further moments of connection with the outside.

The bespoke, German-designed kitchen is centred around a sculptural stone breakfast island and fitted with Bosch appliances, including dual ovens and a 90cm flexizone induction hob. Carrara quartz worktops and a filtered boiling and cold water tap add considered functionality to this refined, practical space.

From here, you're connected to a flexible area that can serve as a playroom, creative studio or additional home office. It adapts seamlessly to the needs of a modern and growing family. A cosy, dual-aspect living room offers a quieter retreat from the main social spaces, perfect for relaxed evenings, reading or use as a dedicated family snug.

The ground floor continues to offer versatility, with an additional room ideal as a second reception space, playroom or guest bedroom. Positioned opposite a conveniently located WC and shower room, it functions beautifully for visiting guests or adaptable family living.

The internal palette is one of clean lines and sophistication. Raised doorways meet near three-metre ceiling heights, enhancing light flow and creating a sense of volume and elegance throughout. Underfloor heating runs beneath engineered floors, offering comfort in every room.

Beyond the house, a landscaped garden leads to a separate cedar-clad garden studio with underfloor heating and a WC. It is perfect for use as a gym, studio or home office.

Ascending gently via the bespoke timber staircase, you'll find four spacious bedrooms, each fitted with bespoke wardrobes in warm wood-grain finishes. The principal suite and second bedroom both feature contemporary en suites, with materials chosen for their elegance and longevity, including Italian porcelain tiles, Crosswater fittings and soft LED detailing.

The driveway has also been landscaped and offers space for three to four cars with integrated electric charging.

Tucked away on a quiet residential street, Purley Avenue offers a rare balance between leafy calm and urban connection. Positioned just moments from West Hampstead and Hampstead, the area sits at the meeting point of two distinct atmospheres: the village-like charm of Hampstead's historic lanes and green spaces, and the vibrant energy of West Hampstead's independent cafés, shops and cultural spots. A further strength of the area lies in its proximity to a number of well-regarded schools across Hampstead and West Hampstead, including both state and independent options. From highly rated primary schools to respected secondary and preparatory institutions, the local education offering adds to the long-term appeal for families.

To the north, the landscape is shifting. The Brent Cross regeneration is one of the most ambitious in the capital, reshaping the area into a new district of parks, retail, workplaces and community infrastructure. This significant investment is quietly transforming the surroundings, bringing with it new potential while respecting the established fabric of the neighbourhood.

Purley Avenue remains a calm, residential enclave close enough to benefit from this renewed energy, but far enough to retain its sense of space and composure. With excellent transport connections via the Jubilee Line, Thameslink and Overground. Cricklewood Thameslink station is just a short walk away, offering swift connections into central London. West Hampstead Thameslink can be reached in as little as three minutes, while St Pancras International is just over 12 minutes away and direct trains to London Bridge take under 30 minute
