London, Greater London, NW10

Kate Brookfield presents this handsome four bedroom mid terrace house with beautiful interiors, located on Fairlight Avenue, NW10.

Fully extended, this impressive Edwardian home has been thoughtfully renovated by the current owners and features light, elegant spaces with a highly practical layout, placing family life at the centre of the design.

On the ground floor, to the front of the house, is a generous double reception room with high ceilings and bespoke joinery, including a full library wall with desk area and a beautiful fireplace with a log burner. Full height double doors lead back into the hallway and down a few steps towards the rear of the home. Extended in 2020, this area offers a dedicated utility room, guest WC, and a wide, west facing kitchen/living/dining space that opens onto the garden. The design includes a handmade shaker style kitchen with quartz worktops, an island, and hardware by Pooky. A neatly positioned pantry sits to the rear of the space, while a full run of glass skylights follows the side return extension and leads down to a full height picture window overlooking the garden. The current owners commissioned a local curtain maker to create fixed blinds for each skylight using Romo fabric, softening the space and creating a warm, homely feel. This area clearly serves as the heart of the home, offering both versatility and functionality.

The west facing garden is accessed via bi-folding doors and is notably not overlooked. It features a patio leading onto a lawn area, with plenty of mature shrubs and trees providing shade during the warmer months.

On the first landing, there is a family bathroom and an additional shower room, along with a generously sized double bedroom at the rear of the house featuring a full bank of fitted storage. Up a few more steps to the first floor are another large double bedroom with fitted storage and an impressive principal bedroom to the front, complete with a bay window and high ceilings. The top floor of the house offers a final large double bedroom with eaves storage, skylights, and a small guest kitchenette – ideal for extended stays.

Fairlight Avenue is part of a collection of increasingly popular roads known for their larger Edwardian houses, generous gardens, and close proximity to both Bakerloo Line and Overground services. The road enjoys quick access to local amenities, including the wonderful Park Parade with its locally run businesses and strong sense of community. The area is also well regarded for schooling, with John Keble Church of England Primary School and Maple Walk Independent School both within walking distance.

For local green space, Roundwood Park, with its Grade II listed status and Green Flag award, is much loved by the local residents, with flower gardens, children’s play areas, wildlife areas, aviary, cafe and sports areas.
