Set behind a private gated driveway on one of NW2's most sought-after roads, this substantial five-bedroom detached house offers close to 2,900 sq ft of beautifully proportioned accommodation, off-street parking for multiple cars, and a private, south-facing garden — a rare combination in this part of London.
The ground floor is built for family life and entertaining in equal measure. A generous open-plan reception and dining room spans the rear of the house, with wide doors opening directly onto the garden. A separate front reception room, with a striking curved bay window, offers flexibility as a formal sitting room, family snug or home office.
The fitted kitchen combines extensive storage with integrated appliances, including a large American-style fridge freezer, and flows into a bright garden room overlooking the lawn — ideal as a breakfast space or everyday family hub.
A versatile basement adds valuable extra space, suited to a home gym, cinema room, playroom or workspace.
Upstairs, five well-proportioned bedrooms include a particularly generous principal suite with an en-suite bathroom and an impressive walk-in dressing room. The remaining bedrooms offer excellent flexibility for family, guests or home working, several enjoying leafy outlooks.
Outside, the south-facing rear garden combines lawn, mature planting and decking — a genuine private retreat, rare at this scale so close to central London.
Hermitage Lane is superbly placed for Hampstead Heath, Golders Green and West Hampstead, with excellent shops, restaurants and transport links close by.
Council Tax Band H. EPC rating E — a full energy report is available on request.
