Description
Offering substantial accommodation arranged over several floors, this impressive Hampstead home provides up to seven bedrooms together with extensive reception and entertaining space, a private cinema room and dedicated gym.

A Substantial Detached Family Home in Hampstead
Designed to accommodate both sophisticated entertaining and comfortable family living, the house offers generous proportions throughout and an unusually flexible arrangement of accommodation.
The property provides up to seven bedrooms, allowing considerable flexibility for a large family, children, guests, live-in staff, home offices or additional recreational space.
Its detached position gives the house an enhanced sense of privacy and independence, something increasingly difficult to find within Hampstead and particularly valuable for purchasers looking for a substantial long-term family residence in NW3.
The accommodation is arranged over several floors, naturally separating the principal entertaining areas, family living spaces and bedroom accommodation.
Exceptional Reception and Entertaining Space
At the heart of the house are its principal reception rooms, providing generous space for formal entertaining, everyday family life and dining.
The substantial proportions allow the house to accommodate larger gatherings comfortably while retaining the warmth and practicality required of a family home.
Multiple living and entertaining spaces provide flexibility in how the property can be used, allowing for separate formal and informal areas depending on the requirements of the incoming purchaser.
Whether used for family living, entertaining guests or hosting larger occasions, the layout provides a level of versatility particularly well suited to modern prime London living.
Up to Seven Bedrooms
The accommodation provides up to seven bedrooms, including substantial principal and guest accommodation.
This scale creates numerous possibilities for the layout of the house and allows rooms to be adapted according to an incoming purchaser’s needs.
Additional bedrooms could equally function as guest suites, children's rooms, staff accommodation, private studies, dressing rooms or home offices.
For international purchasers or families requiring regular guest accommodation, the ability to provide several independent bedroom spaces is a particularly valuable feature.
Private Cinema Room
A dedicated private cinema room adds an important lifestyle element to the property and provides a separate space for films, entertainment and relaxed family use.
Dedicated cinema rooms remain comparatively unusual within traditional Hampstead houses and contribute to the property's appeal as a fully equipped modern family residence.
Private Gym
The house further benefits from its own dedicated gym, allowing residents to exercise privately at home without compromising the principal reception or bedroom accommodation.
Together with the cinema room, the gym gives the property a level of private leisure amenity more commonly associated with significantly larger newly built residences.
Flexible Family Accommodation
One of the principal strengths of this West Heath Road residence is the flexibility of its internal accommodation.
The property is well suited to a variety of requirements, including:
- Large family living
- Formal and informal entertaining
- Guest accommodation
- Live-in staff
- Home offices and private studies
- Children's accommodation
- Fitness and wellbeing
- Cinema and entertainment
- Multi-generational living
The arrangement across several floors also allows different areas of the house to operate independently, providing privacy between family members, guests and staff where required.
