FULL DETAILS A beautiful 1930s semi-detached house set back off Park Road and situated within walking distance of Crouch End Broadway and 0.8 miles of Highgate Station (Northern Line).
Step inside off Park Road and you're in another world. Internally, the house has been designed to create a wonderful blend of calm and intimacy, unusual for a home of this size. It has been refurbished throughout in contemporary style and finished to an exacting standard including oak floors on the ground floor.
The downstairs has been configured to create a huge living space, flooded with light and ideal for family living. The Crittall French windows open onto a mature garden that includes two custom-built decks. It has been landscaped to create a series of discrete spaces, each with its own views and ambience. The garden includes trees and shrubs from Australia, New Zealand and elsewhere (Arbutus, Lomatia, Magnolia, Sophora, Trachycarpus, Eucalyptus, Azara, Peonies, Myrtle, Mahonia, Cordyline, etc). Most are evergreen. With both sets of French windows thrown open, the house and garden merge into one another creating the ultimate space for entertaining guests.
Between the house and the garden is a patio with ample space for a table, barbecue and recliners. Directly opposite the house is an outhouse with electricity and running water. Currently used for storage, it could lend itself to use as a home office or studio.
The front reception room has built-in bespoke storage and triple glazing against the bay window, mitigating any noise. There is also a downstairs W.C. and a capacious floor-to-ceiling cupboard by the front door.
The first floor comprises three double bedrooms, one of which has double doors opening onto a southwest facing balcony. There is also a bathroom, a shower room and a utility cupboard that houses a washing machine and tumble drier. Two of the three bedrooms have masses of cupboard space and bookshelves.
The second floor has two further double bedrooms with dramatic pitched ceilings. The larger of the two has an ensuite and a balcony with beautiful views over the cricket ground.
Further benefits include a driveway that provides off-street parking for two cars and an EV charging point. To maximise the house's energy efficiency, there are solar panels on the roof, a Hive heating system with smart thermostats on all the radiators, and LED lights throughout. The water system is pumped so that there is a good flow of water even on the top floor. And there is a water softener in the sideway to inhibit pipes from furring up and minimise lime deposits on taps and glass.
The house is situated close to Highgate Wood School, Park Road Leisure Centre and Queenswood Medical Practice. Hills Vets are also a few minutes' walk away. The shops in Crouch End and Muswell Hill are within easy walking distance, as are Alexandra Park, Priory Park, Highgate Woods and the Parkland Walk to Finsbury Park. Shepherds Cot offers opportunities for cricket and tennis just around the corner. Transport options include Highgate tube, (Northern Line) 91 (to central London), 41 (to Turnpike Lane), W5, (to Archway) and W7 (to Finsbury Park) bus routes.
