Manuka Close, Ealing, London, W7

What the owners love:

We have absolutely loved living here. It is such a rare find for the area because it's so peaceful and completely private, and being detached makes it feel even more special. The open-plan layout has worked perfectly for us as a family, and the whole house gets beautiful natural light so it always feels bright and welcoming.

The garden has been a huge highlight for us too. It is quiet, private, and a wonderful space to relax or play outside with a young child. Little things like having off-road parking have just made everyday life that bit easier.

The community here is fantastic. We are in an outstanding local school catchment for both primary and secondary, and everything we need is right on our doorstep. There is a great selection of pubs and cafes nearby around Northfields and South Ealing, and having Sainsbury’s and Lidl just a five-minute walk away is incredibly convenient. Plus, with excellent transport links from Hanwell and West Ealing stations, getting around is effortless. It really is a one-off home, and we will be very sad to leave it.

Why we would buy this home:

Welcome to this wonderful detached bungalow, a rare and highly sought-after find that has been fully refurbished throughout to an exacting standard. The interior spaces have been thoughtfully updated to provide a flawless, turnkey property that perfectly balances characterful charm with modern contemporaneity. Every detail has been designed to meet the demands of modern living, creating a unique and inviting atmosphere that is ready to be enjoyed immediately.

Stepping outside, you will discover a stunning, secluded private garden. This peaceful green sanctuary provides the perfect oasis for al fresco dining, entertaining guests, or simply unwinding in total privacy away from the hustle and bustle. This beautiful private garden even includes an historic parish stone, separating Northfields and Hanwell. Adding to the home's superb convenience and everyday practicality, the property also benefits from its own highly sought-after allocated parking space.

The lifestyle offered by this location is truly second to none, nestled perfectly between the neighborhoods of Northfields and Olde Hanwell. You can spend your weekends exploring Northfields' vibrant stretch of independent boutiques, cafes, and restaurants, or take a short stroll to Olde Hanwell to soak in its similarly boutiquey vibe and picturesque riverside areas. Families and professionals alike will appreciate the exceptional transport links for an easy commute, as well as the close proximity to a range of excellent local schools.
