5 bed end terrace house for sale

Ivy Road, London NW2

For the first time in over 40 years, this wonderful Edwardian family home on Ivy Road is coming to the market, ready for a new family to make their own memories. Set on a beautiful tree-lined residential street, where cherry blossom brings a splash of colour every spring, this five-bedroom end-of-terrace house has been completely transformed with exceptional care and attention to detail, creating a home that perfectly combines Edwardian character with modern family living.

What makes this house particularly special is its unusual corner position and private side entrance, allowing for generous room proportions and natural light from several directions. As you step inside, beautiful stained-glass windows, traditional black-and-white floor tiles and elegant wooden panelling create a wonderful first impression. There is also a cleverly designed boot room, perfect for muddy football boots, school bags, coats and even the family dog.

The gorgeous double reception room has wonderfully high ceilings, wooden flooring, two period fireplaces and large double-glazed sash-style windows overlooking the surrounding residential streets. Beautiful cornicing, chandeliers, contrasting sage-coloured walls and carefully considered lighting give the room a lovely, relaxed atmosphere. There is ample space for both a comfortable sitting room and a more formal dining or entertaining area.

Towards the rear is the real heart of the house, a magnificent open-plan kitchen, dining and family room. The brand-new Shaker-style kitchen features an enormous central island, quartz with marble effect work surfaces, a Rangemaster induction cooker, herringbone wooden flooring and an abundance of storage. There is plenty of space for a large dining table and relaxed family seating, making this the perfect room for everything from homework and family dinners to entertaining friends. A separate pantry, utility room with Belfast sink and downstairs WC make everyday family life that little bit easier.

Large sliding doors open onto a beautifully landscaped private garden, with attractive planters, thoughtful lighting and space to relax or entertain. At the end of the garden is a fantastic, detached garden house of approximately 289 sq. Ft., complete with its own fitted kitchen, shower room, WC and mezzanine level. It offers wonderful flexibility as a home office, creative studio or occasional guest space, subject to any relevant permissions.

The first floor accommodates three bedrooms, including a particularly impressive principal suite with beautifully integrated fitted wardrobes and a luxurious en-suite bathroom. This has been finished with underfloor heating, twin Corian-topped basins, a separate bath and a generous walk-in shower. Two further bedrooms share a stylish separate shower room.

The second floor has been cleverly extended with two dormers, creating two additional bedrooms and another contemporary shower room. Both bedrooms enjoy excellent natural light, with one benefiting from ceiling heights approaching three metres. A lovely skylight over the staircase brings even more light into the upper floors. Throughout the house, the bespoke storage, beautiful joinery, traditional detailing and thoughtful lighting are testament to the care that has gone into its transformation.

Ivy Road is one of those streets where people put down roots and stay. There is a wonderful community spirit, with friendly neighbours and the much-loved Cricklewood Library at the top of the next street on Olive Road. The library is a real neighbourhood hub, hosting everything from baby groups to yoga classes and bringing local families together.

The location is particularly appealing for families. Gladstone Park is just a short stroll away, with its beautiful green open spaces, playgrounds, sports facilities and lovely walks. There are also several popular schools nearby, including Anson Primary School and Mora Primary School, while Living Spring Nursery is conveniently located just around the corner. For families considering independent education, school coach services also operate from nearby Chichele Road.

The newly opened Waitrose on Cricklewood Broadway is a fantastic addition to the neighbourhood, making everyday shopping that little bit easier. The wider Brent Cross Town regeneration is another exciting development for the area, bringing new homes, green spaces, shops, restaurants and leisure facilities as the neighbourhood continues to evolve.

Transport connections are excellent, with Cricklewood Thameslink and Willesden Green Underground Station on the Jubilee Line both easily accessible. West Hampstead is also nearby, offering its popular cafés, restaurants, independent shops and additional rail connections, while Brent Cross Shopping Centre is within easy reach.

What makes this house so special is not simply its size or beautiful finish, but the fact that it has been a proper family home for more than four decades. It has been loved, lived in and enjoyed, and the thought and attention that have gone into its transformation are evident in every room. Now it is ready for another family to create their own memories and enjoy everything this lovely part of NW2 has to offer.

Oli and Liana are delighted to be helping the current family pass this much-loved home on to its next owners, and we look forward to welcoming another family to Ivy Road.
