5 bed property for sale

Fordwych Road, London NW2

Fordwych Road, London NW2

Set on one of NW2's wide sought-after residential roads, this handsome semi-detached bay-fronted Edwardian home offers a rare combination of period elegance and genuinely substantial family living space, extending to approximately 2,878sq ft across five bedrooms. This property is offered on a chain free basis.

Ground Floor

A wide entrance hall sets the tone, leading through to a beautifully proportioned front reception room where bay windows, ornate ceiling cornicing and a feature fireplace give a real sense of occasion. This flows through to a second reception room and open-plan family living space, it is really here that the house comes into its own. Lined with fitted bookshelves, a built-in desk area and a striking gallery wall, this is the room a family will actually live in with sofas for winding down, a fireplace for cooler evenings and space enough for everything from homework to hosting, all without ever feeling cramped.

That flow continues straight into the kitchen and dining area extended and fitted to a high standard with a large central island, integrated appliances and a feature brick splashback. A full-width sliding glass door draws in light from a roof lantern above and opens directly onto the garden, so cooking, eating and gathering all happen in one connected, light-filled space. This is the natural heart of the home and, together with the family room beside it, the space where day-to-day life here really happens.

First Floor

The principal bedroom is a genuine highlight: A generous double dressed in deep navy tones with a substantial walk-in wardrobe and a dressing area leading through to a beautifully finished en-suite bathroom with a double-width walk-in shower and twin vanity basins. A second well-proportioned double bedroom, a third bedroom and a further family bathroom complete this generous size floor.

Second Floor

The loft has been thoughtfully converted to provide two further bedrooms and a third bathroom. One bedroom is currently dressed as a peaceful guest room beneath the eaves and the other is set up as a home office, ideal for those who work from home but easily reverted to a fifth bedroom when needed.

Outside

To the rear, a private garden offers a lawned area with space for outdoor seating and dining, enclosed for privacy; a pleasant spot to unwind after a day in the city.
