Longley Road, Harrow

THE PROPERTY

"Launch Event" Saturday 23rd August | Please Call for your Appointment Time | Standing on a favoured corner plot in a desirable residential area of Harrow, this substantial semi-detached period property has many appealing features and considerable further potential. Located near the recreation park, schools and public transport, it has a large lawned garden with hardstanding at the far end. This could be used for off-street parking (with fencing altered to gates), or as space for a garden building.

High ceilings and tall windows give excellent natural light and the ground floor accommodation includes a large open-plan family dining room & kitchen with island unit. There is also a cosy lounge with fireplace, separate study and conservatory addition with WC off and potential to re-model or substantially extend the property in future.

Upstairs, the main bedroom is a very good size across the full width of the house. There is then a further double bedroom and 2 single bedrooms plus the family bathroom. The attic is generous giving the possibility to convert and extend upwards, with further benefits including modern double glazed windows and gas-fired central heating for your comfort.

Outside is a delightful family-size garden approaching 80' in length and mainly laid to lawn. There is also an area of concrete hardstanding to the far end (currently fenced from the street) with existing dropped kerb from Cross Road. This should allow use as off-street parking or the possibility to build a garage or garden building, subject to local planning rules.

Longley Road is a highly sought location being a quiet street near Harrow Recreation Park and under a mile from the bustling town centre. Harrow features a choice of supermarkets, 2 large covered shopping centres, a Vue Cinema, gymnasiums and many other amenities. Travel links are another strong draw to the area with Metropolitan Line/Chiltern Line services (Harrow on the Hill) and also Bakerloo/Overground trains (Harrow & Wealdstone station) giving plenty of options to reach London and its surrounds.

There are many excellent state, church and private schools locally, plus good road links to the Home Counties and all London airports. Harrow on the Hill is also nearby and is a charming oasis to visit, being a Conservation Area with some delightful green spaces, coffee shops, cocktail bars and pub restaurants.
