6 bed detached house for sale in Woodville Road, Ealing, London, W5 (ref: 548613)

“The Best Of Old And New” Doesn’t Quite Do This Victorian Detached Justice. So much thought and care has gone into this cherished three storey home. It combines the very best of timeless 19th century style with stunning 21st century design.

Getting the best out of a period property is surely about restraint - knowing what to change and what’s best left as our ancestors intended.

Thankfully the temptation to make wholesale changes has been resisted in this three storey home that dates back to the 1800’s.

Instead the period features have been sympathetically restored, leaving only the superb kitchen, dining room extension and gorgeous bathrooms to benefit from a thoroughly 21st century upgrade.

This substantial double fronted property certainly has no shortage of reception rooms.

On one side of the welcoming hallway there’s a spacious lounge which leads to a quiet study.

On the other side of the hall there’s another large reception room. The space has been opened up to run from the front of the house to the back. It now includes a fabulous side return extension which has created space for a stunning new dining room.

The bold geometric tiles in the dining room are a modern take on classic Victorian design. They draw your eye into the room and out though the bi-fold doors to the private west facing garden.

The formal dining room will really come into its own when entertaining but it’s likely the family will always head straight to the spacious kitchen / diner.

This is one of the rooms that has been given a thoroughly modern makeover.

The fitted units are sleek and stylish, with top spec appliances and a gorgeous island unit.

There’s plenty of space to grab a slice of toast, catch up over a quick lunch or sit down to a weekday supper.

There’s also further access to the garden terrace, allowing you all to spill outside to dine al-fresco when the sun’s out.

And the handy utility room in the basement means none of the precious kitchen space is wasted.

The four bedrooms on the first floor are beautifully restored to be just as the Victorian architects would have intended.

They’ll take you back to a time long before PlayStations made their way into bedrooms - or even worse, those ghastly bedframes with TVs in the footboard!

The top floor is equally versatile by design with part of the substantial loft has being converted to make the most of the available space. Currently configured as a further office / chill out space, it could also be a self contained nanny flat, a games room, or two further bedrooms with a shared bathroom, the options are limitless.

Further neat modern touches include storage space in the eaves and Velux windows.

The luxurious contemporary design extends to the main bathroom on the first floor, the two first floor en-suites and the four piece bathroom on the top floor.

The private, west facing back garden is another unexpected treat, with a lovely seating area and a manageable lawn for the kids to play on.

There’s space to park several cars on the front drive (and fit an EV charger), although you’re so conveniently located close to Ealing Broadway you may not even need a car.

You’re only a 5 minute walk from Ealing Broadway station. Here you can hop onto an Elizabeth Line train which will get you to Paddington in less than 10 minutes, Bond Street in 16 minutes, Liverpool Street in under 20 minutes and Canary Wharf in a blistering 26 minutes.

That also means you’re only a short walk from the big name retailers and restaurants on the Broadway.

If you have children, the fantastic local schools are another great reason to move here.

Montpelier Primary & Christ the Saviour CofE Primary School (both rated ‘Outstanding’ by Ofsted) are around 10 minutes walk away.

If you prefer independent schools, there’s a great selection of both single sex and co-ed schools nearby, catering for all ages. These include Notting Hill & Ealing High School, St Benedicts & Durston House.

This substantial Victorian residence offers the chance to bring your period property dreams to life in a fantastic and versatile family home that combines period charm and modern design in a very sought-after Ealing location.
