Herbert Gardens, Kensal Rise NW10

Herbert Gardens, Kensal Rise NW10 | £1,700,000
Four bed semi-detached house | Freehold | 2,314sq ft | South-facing garden | Off-street parking for 2-3 cars

There is a rare kind of breathing room to Herbert Gardens, a semi-detached family home where every space has been considered, not just filled. At over 2,300sq ft, with a south-facing garden stretching more than 60ft and off-street parking for two to three cars, it offers the kind of scale that is genuinely hard to find in Kensal Rise, arranged with a clever, considered layout throughout.

Space to spread out

The ground floor opens with a bright 19ft reception room to the front, its bay window and fireplace giving it real period presence, while the rear of the house is given over to an impressive 23ft x 24ft open-plan kitchen, dining and family space beneath a run of skylights with glazed doors opening the full width onto the garden. A separate and large laundry room keeps the everyday practicalities tucked out of sight.



A room of one's own

Cleverly built into the side of the house is a genuinely separate study: A proper home office rather than a corner carved out of another room with its own window and its own sense of quiet. In a house already generous with space, it is the kind of addition that makes working from home feel entirely possible.



The garden, properly stretched out

At over 60ft long and south-facing, the garden is the standout feature of the house: Lawn enough for football and trampolines, a deck off the kitchen for entertaining and still room to spare. This is the sort of garden that is simply not common at this size so close to central London.





Room to grow

Three further double bedrooms (two with built-in wardrobes) sit on the first floor, served by a family bathroom and a separate shower room (en-suite to one of the bedrooms). The top floor is given over entirely to the principal suite: A striking, light-filled room with its own walk-in wardrobe and en-suite bathroom, fitted with a freestanding bath and separate shower beneath a skylight. This room feels like a proper retreat away from the rest of the house.



Good to know

Semi-detached and cleverly laid out across three floors, the house also benefits from off-street parking for two to three cars, a south-facing garden and a footprint that gives every room space to work as intended. Air conditioning is fitted throughout the ground floor (excluding the office) and in three of the four bedrooms.



The location

Herbert Gardens sits within easy reach of Chamberlayne Road and Salusbury Road, both known for their independent restaurants, pubs and shops, and just a short walk from Queen's Park itself, with its tennis courts, golf course and cafe. Kensal Green (Bakerloo line and Overground) and Kensal Rise (Overground) stations are close by, alongside numerous bus routes and the celebrated Golborne Road and Portobello Road markets are within easy reach, as is Queen's Park station. A good choice of local schools, including Princess Frederica and Ark Academy, are also nearby in addition to a strong selection of private schools.
