Summerlands Avenue, London, W3

Tucked away on a quiet, tree-lined cul-de-sac close to Poet’s Corner, this beautifully presented four-bedroom Edwardian house is a warm and characterful family home, with generous living space and a wonderful south-facing garden.

The ground floor has a particularly welcoming feel. A spacious double reception room retains much of the house’s period charm, with a bay window, wooden flooring, shutters and a feature fireplace with wood-burning stove. There is plenty of room for family life to unfold, whether relaxing together, entertaining friends or finding a quieter corner to work or read.

To the rear, the kitchen and dining area open directly onto the generous south-facing garden — a real extension of the living space during the warmer months and ideal for children, summer lunches, barbecues and entertaining.

Across the upper floors are four bedrooms and a family bathroom, with the principal bedroom also benefiting from its own balcony. Good storage throughout adds to the practicality of the house for growing families.

Summerlands Avenue is especially appealing for families: peaceful and residential, yet within easy reach of everything that makes this part of Acton such an enjoyable place to live. Churchfield Road, with its independent cafés, restaurants and local shops, is a short walk away, while Acton Park and Springfield Gardens provide plenty of green space close to home. David Lloyd Acton Park is also nearby.

Families are particularly well served for schools, with Derwentwater, Ark Byron, Ark Priory and St Vincent’s primary schools among the local options, as well as Twyford Church of England High School.

For travel across London and beyond, Acton Main Line offers fast Elizabeth line connections, with Acton Central providing London Overground services and Acton Town serving the District and Piccadilly lines. The A40 and M4 are also easily accessible.
