College Road

A four bedroom turnkey home standing at close to 1,600 sq ft, completely renovated, and in a prime Kensal Rise location.

Set on one of Kensal Rise’s most sought-after residential streets, this beautifully reimagined Victorian home has been comprehensively renovated, extended and reconfigured to create a refined four-bedroom family house where thoughtful design and everyday practicality sit in perfect balance. Behind its restored façade, the house unfolds with a calm and cohesive palette of natural materials, soft tones and carefully curated finishes. Original fireplaces have been retained and restored, providing a subtle nod to the building’s heritage, while a complete renovation completed between 2025 and 2026 has transformed the property into a turnkey home of exceptional quality. Floors and ceilings have been rebuilt with enhanced insulation, all windows replaced with new double glazing, and every element considered through both a design and functional lens. The ground floor is anchored by a beautifully executed kitchen and dining space where skylights, Crittall-style glazing and large glazed doors draw natural light deep into the house throughout the day. Bespoke timber cabinetry is paired with quartz worktops, Claybrook tiling, brass detailing and a suite of Miele appliances, including an American-style fridge freezer, boiling water tap and integrated food waste disposer. The result is a space that feels both architectural and welcoming, seamlessly connecting the interior to the west-facing garden beyond. Across the upper floors, four generous bedrooms are accompanied by two beautifully finished bathrooms and an additional guest WC. Otto and Claybrook tiles, digital underfloor heating, brushed brass fittings and carefully selected fixtures create a consistent design language throughout, while the principal family bathroom features a freestanding bath positioned as a focal point within the space. A loft conversion has introduced two further bedrooms and a contemporary shower room, completing a highly flexible layout suited to modern family living. Throughout the home, oak flooring finished with invisible oil, dimmable lighting and a carefully considered Farrow & Ball-inspired palette reinforce the calm, understated aesthetic that defines the property. Positioned moments from Kensal Rise’s independent cafés, restaurants, shops, transport links and highly regarded local schools, the house combines considered design with outstanding convenience. Queen’s Park is also within easy walking distance, while the strong sense of community that has made this pocket of North West London so enduringly popular is evident from the moment you arrive. Offered chain free, this is a rare opportunity to acquire a recently completed family home where the hard work has already been done, allowing the next owner to simply move in and enjoy.
