123, Hanover Road, London, NW10 3DN

The first thing this Queen’s Park house does is slow you down. Past its pale-yellow facade, there’s a sense of calm entirely fitting for the post code.

Walnut runs underfoot from the front door to the back, and design is kept quiet to let the light do the talking.

The front reception room offers a hushed welcome: Light filters in through a wraparound window and sage-green joinery compliments the verdant outlook.

Towards the rear, daily life plays out with cooking, dining and sitting areas connected across a split-level space.

The kitchen sits on the upper level, a solid-wood shaker set up with veined stone surfaces and a filtered water supply.

A spacious dining area is backdropped by built-in cabinetry; steps lead down to the lounge beyond. Here, the reception area gazes out to the garden through a wall of glass.

Landscaped by Tom Simpson Design and layered for calm, it’s split between a pebbled patio and stretch of lawn edged in raised planters.

Upstairs, four bedrooms across two floors are kept in the same natural register.

The whole of the top floor belongs to the principal suite: A bright room with rooftop views, a walk-in wardrobe and a stone-lined en suite.

Three further bedrooms sit on the first floor, one with an en suite, the others served by a shower room.

The home further benefits from recent renovations, incorporating new electrical, lighting and power installation, together with a brand-new boiler, pipework and radiators.

One of Queen’s Park’s most sought-after residential streets, Hanover Road sits within easy reach of the neighbourhood’s vibrant cultural and culinary scene.

Chamberlayne Road – just a short walk away – is a thriving local hub, home to independent cafés, design-led boutiques and acclaimed restaurants.

Green space is abundant, with Queen’s Park itself offering tree-lined walks, tennis courts and a weekend farmers’ market that draws a loyal local following.

The nearby open expanse of Kensal Green Cemetery provides a more contemplative retreat, while Little Venice and the Grand Union Canal are just a cycle away.

For families, the area is well served by a selection of highly regarded schools, plus efficient transport links provide swift access into central London.
