6 bed semi-detached house for sale

Stanley Gardens NW2

Set on one of Willesden Green’s pretty residential, tree-lined turnings, Stanley Gardens is a beautifully refurbished six-bedroom family home that balances period grandeur with considered modern design. Spanning approximately 2,642 sq ft across three generous floors, this is a substantial house that has been thoughtfully renovated and carefully maintained.

A manicured front garden sets the tone, leading into a practical boot room, detail that makes everyday family life far easier. Beyond, the entrance hall is impressive in scale, finished with wood panelling, original cornicing and proportions that immediately feel special. The double reception room is the showstopper: Herringbone wooden floors, soaring ceilings, two elegant bay windows flooding the space with natural light, and twin original fireplaces with ornate mantels. It’s a room designed for proper entertaining but equally comfortable for relaxed evenings in.

Stepping down, beautifully tiled floors lead into the open-plan kitchen and dining space, where the herringbone theme continues seamlessly. Large bi-fold doors open directly onto the landscaped rear garden, creating effortless indoor–outdoor flow during the warmer months. The kitchen is practical and well designed, Corian worktops and a Corian waterfall island, a generous stainless-steel double sink, extensive storage and a Smeg gas cooker. The garden itself is wide and thoughtfully planted, offering greenery without becoming high maintenance. A separate laundry room, utility area and guest WC complete the ground floor.

The first floor continues the home’s sense of space and elegance. On the half landing sits a very large double bedroom with bay window overlooking the garden, high ceilings, ceiling roses and fitted wardrobes, alongside a sleek family bathroom with underfloor heating. The principal suite dominates much of the main floor, beautifully proportioned with ornate cornicing, generous bespoke built-in wardrobes and a luxurious en-suite bathroom featuring bath, shower and underfloor heating. Two further double bedrooms and a stylish additional bathroom are arranged across the upper levels. The top floor, bathed in natural light, offers two impressive loft-style bedrooms with high ceilings, ideal for teenagers, guests or a dedicated office space, along with further bathroom facilities. A substantial loft storage area provides invaluable practical space for family life.

Behind the scenes, the house has been comprehensively upgraded with new double glazing throughout, a fully insulated roof clad in reclaimed slate, updated wiring, smoke and heat alarms, an LCD video access system and a modern boiler installed a few years ago. Underfloor heating operates in the kitchen and bathrooms, with radiators serving the remainder of the house. It retains its period charm but functions exactly as a modern family home should.

Stanley Gardens sits moments from the heart of Walm Lane, where daily life is convenient. Morning coffee and weekend pastries are taken care of by Gail's, a firm local favourite and natural meeting point for neighbours. For dinner, Sanzio offers well-regarded Italian cuisine and a relaxed atmosphere, ideal for family meals or an easy midweek supper. Everyday essentials are covered by a large Sainsbury's, while New Care Pharmacy provides a reliable and well-run local pharmacy, adding to the practical ease of the location. Brent Cross and Staples Corner are a short drive away, and the significant Brent Cross Town regeneration continues to transform the wider area with new retail, leisure, green spaces and improved infrastructure, a long-term positive for connectivity and investment.

Connectivity is strong. Willesden Green tube station is a short walk away, offering swift links to Bond Street in around 13 minutes and direct routes into the West End and Canary Wharf. Cricklewood railway station is also nearby, providing direct services to St Pancras International, Wimbledon, Sutton, Luton and St Albans, alongside numerous bus routes.

Green space is plentiful. Queen's Park, Gladstone Park, Roundwood Park and Claremont Park are all within easy reach, offering playgrounds, tennis courts and wide open space. Closer to home, The Mapesbury Dell remains a much-loved hidden green space and genuine community hub throughout the year.

Oli and Liana are delighted to be appointed as sole agents for this exceptional Stanley Gardens home, a serious family house on a proper residential street, combining scale, character and one of NW2’s most sought-after streets.
