2 bed flat for sale

Mattock Lane, Ealing, London W5

What the owner loves:

We’ve really enjoyed living in this apartment and the area. The neighbourhood is vibrant, diverse, and set in a picturesque, welcoming environment.

Walpole Park is right at the doorstep — with the beautiful Pitzhanger Manor & Gallery, a cosy café, peaceful walks, majestic trees, a fantastic playground, and lively summer festivals from music and comedy to craft beer. It’s been a real highlight for us, and we’ve spent countless happy hours there.

Local favourites include wa Café for exquisite Japanese patisserie, Farm W5 for a fresh, healthy lunch and a browse at For Art’s Sake. Just five minutes away, Bond Street, New Broadway and Dickens Yard offer a wide choice of restaurants and cafés.

What we’ve valued most is the balance — being so close to everything, yet able to step into our private garden and feel an immediate sense of calm. In summer, it truly becomes an extension of the home and has been the setting for many joyful garden gatherings.

Why we would buy it:

Quite simply, it’s the best of both worlds. Nestled in one of the most sought-after locations in Ealing, this home is just a stone’s throw from the stunning Walpole Park, offering not only open green space but peaceful, tree-lined paths and quiet corners that feel like a true escape. And when you're ready to step back into the buzz, Ealing Broadway is moments away, with its superb transport links and a fantastic array of boutiques, artisan coffee houses, and restaurants right on your doorstep.

Beyond the location, this home offers something increasingly rare - a sense of calm and privacy. The enclosed, walled garden is a true sanctuary, ideal for morning coffees, summer evenings, or simply a breath of fresh air after a day in the city.

From an investment point of view, this property makes perfect sense: Share of freehold, off-street parking, and a building which is well-managed and future-proofed (in part due to the extensive reserve fund).

To summarise, it’s a home that combines lifestyle, practicality, and peace of mind - a sensible choice, yes, but also an undeniably exciting one.
