Stanlake Road, W12

Five-bedroom Victorian family home | Four bathrooms | 34ft garden | West-facing balcony | Basement utility & storage | Fully refurbished | Further extension potential

Behind its handsome Victorian façade lies an exceptional five-bedroom family home, comprehensively refurbished while carefully retaining its period character. New electrics, plumbing, flooring and decoration have been combined with thoughtful contemporary design to create a home that feels both elegant and exceptionally practical for family life.

The ground floor is particularly impressive. To the front, a beautifully finished kitchen and dining room is flooded with natural light from the bay window, while a log burner creates a warm focal point and there is generous space for family meals and entertaining.

To the rear is a wonderfully cosy separate family room with fireplace, opening directly onto the generous 34ft garden — unusually good outside space for this part of W12. There is also exciting potential for the future. Subject to the usual consents, the side return could be incorporated and the rear opened up, as neighbouring homes have done, to create an even larger entertaining and family space while still retaining a very good-sized garden. The house already represents exceptional value in its current fully refurbished condition, with further scope to add both space and value over time.

Practical family living has been equally well considered, with a ground-floor guest cloakroom and a basement providing a dedicated utility room together with substantial additional storage.

The first floor is a particular highlight. The principal bedroom has a beautifully appointed en-suite shower room with exposed brickwork and twin vanity basins. Beyond the en-suite is a further versatile room which could work equally well as a dressing room, nursery, home office, additional bedroom or private sitting room. A charming west-facing balcony completes the suite and provides a lovely place to enjoy the afternoon and evening sun.

Also on this floor is another generous double bedroom and a beautifully finished family bathroom.

The upper floors provide two further double bedrooms, each with their own en-suite shower room, together with a fifth bedroom offering additional flexibility for children, guests or working from home.

Throughout the house, the quality of the refurbishment is immediately apparent, with .original character sitting comfortably alongside contemporary finishes and a layout designed for modern family life.

Stanlake Road is one of Shepherd’s Bush’s best-positioned residential streets — peaceful and tree-lined, yet exceptionally convenient.
