The house has period features dating back to the early 18th century, having retained many of its original features, including impressive reception rooms, sash windows, high ceilings with ornate detailing, exposed timber beams and feature fireplaces. The property extends to almost 3,000sq.ft. and has been recently refurbished and a contemporary shaker style kitchen breakfast room compliments the more traditional sitting room, dining room and reception hall, all with their original wood floors and period features. The ground floor also benefits from a sizable utility room off the kitchen, leading into a boot room with rear access and guest WC. The first floor affords five well appointed double bedrooms, a study nook, a newly fitted contemporary family bathroom and newly fitted contemporary shower room, mirrored in the same style. Rather uniquely the property includes two staircases, one off the central reception hall and the other off the boot room to the southwestern corner of the home, allowing the property to be split internally at ground and first floor level, perhaps for home business use, or alternatively as an annex.OutsideFrom Stanmore Hill, mature hedging and trees grow above the front boundary wall, creating a screen from the hustle and bustle, with the iron entrance gates giving clues to the remarkable home that's hidden behind, in plain sight. The rear garden is mainly laid to lawn, with a full width patio for entertaining, a variety of mature hedges and shrubs and to the side off street parking for two cars, with two sizable storage rooms that could easily be reinstated as garaging for further parking, if preferred.SituationThe property is conveniently located for all the local amenities of Stanmore, offering excellent transport facilities with links to London and the north with Stanmore station (Jubilee line) underground station only 0.5 miles away and the A41, M1 and M25 all located nearby and Stanmore's three main places of worship are all within 0.7 to 0.8 of a mile of the property. Sporting and recreational facilities are incredibly well catered for in the area with Stanmore Golf Club, Hartsbourne Country Club and The Grove all situated particularly close by, together with the renowned David Lloyd and Village fitness centres, Bentley Priory Nature Reserve and Stanmore Country Park. There are several excellent private and state schools in the vicinity including North London Collegiate, Avanti House, Haberdashers, St Margaret's and Merchant Taylors.
