What the owner loves ❤️:

This property has been a loving family home for over 50 years, where our children and grandchildren have been raised. Majority of the interior was designed by my late husband. The house has always been the focal point of many happy events with family and friends and holds many cherished memories for all of us. When the family comes to visit, they say the moment they walk through the door they know they are home. Now it is time for the house to welcome another young family, who will create their own amazing memories.

What the agent says:

Welcome to Newlands; a beautiful, semi-detached, generous period property set on an enviably large corner plot within one of West London's most coveted pockets, The Butts.

The front entrance is via a wide paved area of the front garden with established trees and shrubs. Immediately you are given a feeling of privacy and a sense of adventure to explore beyond. Set in a wide arch, an attractive white front door opens to an inner porch and spacious hall. This wonderful house is without doubt an exciting and much loved home, full of original charm and unique arts & crafts features.

To the right of the hall is a gorgeous sitting room with exceptional ceiling height, original fireplace and large windows. There are bespoke, hand-crafted bookshelves and cupboards in the recesses either side of the fireplace. The soft, caramel-coloured parquet wooden flooring adds to the warmth and welcoming feeling of this lovely room. Double doors from this room may be opened wide to the rest of the house, with a view through the conservatory to the garden, or closed to create an intimate and cosy room to relax in. The impressive garden room / conservatory is flooded with natural light and features lovely French doors leading to the pretty garden.

A further elegant reception room, also with access to the garden, can be used as a formal dining space and benefits from feature paneling to the walls, a glamorous chandelier and wall sconces - this lovely room is perfect for those special dinner parties and wonderful family Christmases.

The kitchen is capacious and well-appointed with honey-coloured wooden units. The kitchen flows beautifully into different zones. The sunny yellow walls help make this a happy place to create delicious meals.

The wide staircase, with attractive wooden banisters, rises from the hall leading to four bedrooms. The principle bedroom is large, light and airy with a wall of windows, built-in wardrobes and an archway leading to a WOW of an en-suite! Fully tiled and stylishly fitted with a central bath and shower, it is a luxurious feature.

There are two further double bedrooms, both with ample built-in storage. The fourth bedroom would be a perfect nursery or home office. There is a pretty, well appointed family bathroom and beside this is a joyful surprise! A wooden built in sauna, such a treat for tired muscles.

From the large characterful landing is a cast iron spiral staircase leading you up to the enormous attic room with dramatic height and beamed apex ceiling. What fun to have this amazing space for children/teenagers, home working or a studio. The room is flooded with natural light and has large eaves cupboards for lots of storage.

The beautiful, secluded, south-west facing, established garden wraps around on three sides of the house with large areas of grass, mature shrubs, trees and flower beds. Part of the garden is walled affording yet more privacy. There is a good sized patio for entertaining and plenty of room for garden fun.

This delightful, substantial house offers plenty of scope for change and extension, enabling someone to make it their own. A much-loved and treasured home which has given wonderful memories to the family, for over 50 years, standing proudly and now awaiting a future to welcome and nurture a new lucky family.

The wonderful location, The Butts, has been described as “a seat of paradise” - it was developed by William Parish, starting in 1690 and continuing until the mid-18th century. It is an enchanting area with a timeless charm. Brentford itself is experiencing great development and changes, further transforming the desirability of the area. There is a growing wealth of eateries, gastro pubs and independent shops. It is also near the beautiful and renowned Kew Gardens, Gunnersbury Park and The Watermans Art Centre.

Situated beside the river Thames and adjoining river Bren, pleasure boats, riverside walks and trendy cafes all make this a delightful area to relax in. There are also plenty of good transport links from Brentford Station, Kew Bridge Station & several options in nearby Ealing.
