Roxborough Park, Lower Slopes of the Hill

THE PROPERTY

Holmwood is an enticing prospect, being a handsome and substantial Edwardian semi-detached house with high ceilings and fine period features, ideally located within a Conservation Area on the favoured Lower Slopes of the Hill.

A much desired family home offering a grand entrance hall, ample living space and driveway parking plus a large rear garden with useful timber summerhouse/workshop. Such properties are rarely available and highly sought, being in a great location minutes walk from the Metropolitan/Chiltern Line station to London and nearby St Anselm's School.

Offered for sale chain-free, the house is generously proportioned throughout with ample living space to the ground floor. This includes a guest cloakroom and two unusually large reception rooms at front and rear, with a traditional kitchen/breakfast room between forming the central heart of the home. A delightful layout and having not been previously extended there is considerable further potential should you wish to enlarge the ground floor.

Upstairs the accommodation is arranged over 2 levels, the first floor comprising 4 generous bedrooms including a spacious 16' master bedroom and family bathroom. The second floor offers a further sizeable bedroom/living space fitted with a kitchenette and en-suite shower room, making it ideal for a variety of uses including guest suite or teenager's room.

Additional benefits include gas-fired central heating (recent new boiler), some double glazed windows and many delightful character details including an original working fireplace, deep skirtings, architraves and cornices. Outside, there is off street parking and a front garden, with the long rear garden being another desirable feature. This offers a patio and expansive lawn leading to a large timber garden building ideal for hobbies and storage, with electricity supply.

The location on the North side of the Hill is much favoured for its proximity to the Metropolitan/Chiltern Line station, with both lines providing fast and frequent air-conditioned access to the City. Also being part of the historic and cohesive village community holds great appeal, with many excellent State, Church & Private Schools close by.

A short walk up to St Mary's Church or across Church Fields meadow brings you to the centre of this delightful urban village featuring coffee shops, cocktail bars and pub restaurants. There are also excellent road links to the Home Counties and all London airports.
