Behind a discreet frontage on one of St John’s Wood’s most desirable residential roads, this substantial detached house unfolds across approximately 3,802 sq ft, offering an unusual sense of privacy, generous lateral proportions and a beautifully landscaped south-facing garden.

The house is entered via a spacious reception hall, which sets the tone for the accommodation beyond. At its heart is an impressive 34 ft reception room, where wide expanses of glazing frame views of the garden and flood the space with natural light. Sliding doors create a wonderful sense of connection between the interiors and the terrace, making the house particularly well suited to entertaining.

Adjoining the principal reception room is a formal dining room, while a spectacular kitchen, family and breakfast room spans more than 30 ft and sits beneath a striking glazed roof lantern. This bright and sociable space overlooks the garden and provides ample room for both everyday family life and larger gatherings. A utility room, guest WC and gym complete the ground floor accommodation.

The first floor is arranged around a generous landing and includes a principal bedroom suite with a dressing room and ensuite bathroom. Two further bedrooms, a family bathroom and a library provide flexible accommodation, while a study opens directly onto a private terrace overlooking the garden.

On the second floor are two additional bedrooms, both served by ensuite bathrooms. One benefits from a balcony, while useful eaves storage is incorporated into the design.

Outside, the south-facing garden has been thoughtfully landscaped with expansive stone terraces, mature planting and a variety of seating areas. Enclosed by established trees and greenery, it offers an exceptional degree of seclusion rarely found so close to central London. A double garage and gated off-street parking further enhance the practicality of the house.

Elm Tree Road sits moments from the cafés, restaurants and independent boutiques of St John’s Wood High Street. Regent’s Park, Lord’s Cricket Ground and the Underground station are all within easy reach, placing some of north west London’s most sought-after amenities close at hand while retaining a distinctly residential atmosphere.
