About this home
*** AVAILABLE FOR SHORT LET ONLY ***
The National Athletic Grounds stood on the site of the present Whitmore Gardens, opening in 1890; a civic amenity for a neighbourhood that was, by the final decade of the Victorian era, rapidly finding its character. The streets that followed were built with the same quiet confidence: wide, tree-lined, residential in the best sense. Whitmore Gardens connects College Road and Chamberlayne Road, placing it at the natural intersection of two of Kensal Rise's most beloved thoroughfares. Making it, by any measure, one of NW10's most coveted addresses.
This four-bedroom period house presents with considerable charm and genuine bones. Original woodwork and internal doorways of real quality run throughout; hardwood floors ground the principal rooms with warmth and continuity. The proportions are generous, the ceilings high. Two reception rooms on the ground floor offer the kind of spatial flexibility that growing families rely on: one for daily life, one for occasions. At the rear, an open-plan kitchen and dining room opens through bifold doors onto a south-facing garden that, with considered landscaping, has every ingredient to become something exceptional.
The upper floors are arranged sensibly across two levels with four bright and spacious bedrooms. The principal suite occupies the top floor with its own en suite, removed from the activity below. Off-street parking via a private driveway completes a practical and well-considered family home.
College Road and Chamberlayne Road are within easy reach, offering the independent cafés, delis and neighbourhood restaurants that have made this pocket of NW10 so compelling. Kensal Green station places the Bakerloo line on the doorstep; Kensal Rise Overground connects directly to Clapham Junction to the south and Hampstead Heath to the east. Princess Frederica Primary School is a short walk away, and a strong selection of further state and independent schools serves the wider area.
