Hampstead Grove, Hampstead, London, NW3

Old Grove House is a truly exceptional early eighteenth-century property in the heart of historic Hampstead, one of North London’s most desirable addresses. Rich in history and character, this remarkable home combines the presence of a country house with the convenience of city life. The house is defined by its far-reaching views towards neighbouring Fenton House, enchanced by interiors designed by the acclaimed Chester Jones.



The main house extends to approximately 7,585 sq ft and unfolds across a series of beautifully proportioned rooms, with grand reception spaces, high ceilings, intricate period detailing and tall sash windows drawing in excellent natural light. Formal rooms are balanced by quieter sitting rooms and studies, giving the house both scale and ease.



The accommodation includes seven bedrooms and six bathrooms, arranged across a thoughtful floor plan that allows for both formal entertaining and comfortable family life. The kitchen and dining spaces are generously scaled, while additional reception rooms and upper-level family accommodation give the house unusual breadth and flexibility.



The arrangement of the accommodation is particularly versatile. Alongside the principal house, there is a separate cottage house of approximately 931 sq ft, providing a valuable secondary dwelling within the grounds. With its own kitchen/dining room, reception room, bedroom and bathroom, as well as a terrace and wine store, it lends itself naturally to guest accommodation, staff use or independent ancillary living.



Outside, the walled garden is one of the property’s defining features. Formal in design and beautifully structured, it is laid out with clipped hedging, gravel paths and far-reaching views across Hampstead, creating a setting of rare privacy and calm. A garage and off-street parking for two cars add further practicality.



Hampstead Grove is one of the area’s most distinguished addresses, tucked into the old heart of Hampstead and within easy reach of the High Street. From here, the village’s long-established mix of cafés, restaurants, pubs and independent shops is close at hand, while Hampstead Heath provides one of London’s most celebrated expanses of green space. The setting is unusually atmospheric, defined by historic houses, garden walls and a sense of quiet remove, yet Hampstead Underground station offers straightforward access into the West End and the City.
