Renovations in Northwood, HA6.

Building in Northwood.

Northwood grew up around the Metropolitan line station in the early 1900s, with substantial Edwardian houses along the tree-lined roads to the east and inter-war housing filling the rest. Plots are large, the houses are detached, and the neighbouring Moor Park estate raises the ceiling on what owners will invest.

The projects here are among the largest we do outside central London: double-storey rear extensions, full refurbishments with new services and layouts, new kitchens and bathrooms throughout, and loft conversions within the deep hipped roofs.

The Northwood Frithwood and Green Lane conservation areas cover parts of the district; most streets are unrestricted.
