Flat B, 68, Priory Park Road, London, NW6 7UN

Guide price £685,000 - £700,000 Priory Park Road dates from 1882, when it was formed as part of the Victorian suburban expansion that steadily transformed this part of NW6 into one of north-west London's most characterful residential neighbourhoods.

The street itself is handsomely wide and tree-lined, its period buildings set well back behind mature planting that gives it a sense of peace and quiet at odds with the energy of Kilburn High Road a few minutes' walk away.

On that road, we offer this charming first-floor two-bedroom apartment.

Bright, considered and well-configured, it features a 250 sq ft private roof terrace that distinguishes it immediately from its neighbours.

The open-plan kitchen and dining room is a fantastic space for entertaining, with sweeping laminate floors running throughout the property, gloss white cabinetry, anthracite worktops and splashback, and fitted bookshelves.

The current owner has configured the second bedroom as a lounge and snug.

It is a charming arrangement, and one that can easily be converted back to a double bedroom should a new owner wish to use the open-plan kitchen and dining room as the principal reception.

The large double principal bedroom is spacious and calm, with a sash window that draws in generous natural light, plus a ceiling fan and air conditioning.

A large contemporary shower room with a substantial vanity sink and mirrored splashback completes the lower level. Upstairs, the roof terrace is the apartment's indisputable crowning feature.

250 sq ft of private outdoor space with external storage, open to the sky, perfectly suited to hosting, al fresco dining or simply sitting among the rooftops as the evening settles in.

There is also significant floored loft space for storage.

Priory Park Road is particularly well placed for enjoying the best of NW6, combining the quieter residential character of its broad, tree-lined streets with the convenience of Kilburn High Road just a few minutes’ walk away.

Everyday amenities, independent shops, cafés and longstanding local institutions such as Vijay are all close at hand, while the increasingly sought-after neighbourhoods of Queen’s Park and West Hampstead are within easy reach, including the boutiques and restaurants of Salusbury Road and Lonsdale Road.

Green space is also plentiful, with Queen’s Park and Kilburn Grange Park nearby.

Transport connections are excellent: Kilburn High Road and Brondesbury Overground stations are both close by, while West Hampstead’s extensive Jubilee, Overground and Thameslink connections provide fast access across London and beyond.
