This absolute gem of an apartment occupies the second (top) floor of a Victorian semi detached
property in the heart of New Barnet. Surrounded by shops and restaurants, this one bedroom property

PROPERTY DESCRIPTION
This apartment exemplifies bijou living at its best. All space is maximised by thoughtful planning, and
considered yet characterful décor that creates an appealing ambience whilst emphasizing the excellent
natural light in this dual aspect property.
The main entrance to the property is accessed via a private pedestrian path along the side of the
building. Once inside, the apartment front door is on the first floor. From here there is a stairway (with a
south-facing window and garden views) up to the second floor landing, which is home to a neat
workspace area. Beyond this are doors to the living room, bedroom and bathroom, and an open
doorway to the separate kitchen.
The living room has space for lounge and dining areas. It has a large north -facing window, and a
relaxing atmosphere thanks to all-white walls and woodwork, downlighters, and a pale grey wood
laminate floor. The separate kitchen opposite has a logical layout and is well-equipped, with handleless
fitted wall and floor cabinets that house a combination of integrated and freestanding appliances, and a
smart monochrome tiled splashback. The window above the sink is south facing with views over the
rear garden.
The double bedroom is a serene sanctuary. Bathed in calming north light, it has space for a large
double bed and bedroom furniture. The décor matches that of the living room, fostering a sense of
coherence. The bathroom continues the monochrome theme, with a delightful mix of gloss white metro
tiles, hexagonal black mosaic floor tiles, a white bath, washbasin console, and high-tech WC, and a
black shower, taps and heated towel rail. A high-level window provides natural light and ventilation.
The apartment is in an immaculate condition throughout with high quality fixtures and fitting, including a
smart home system to control the heating, lighting, and entryphone.
Outside, the side pathway leads to an unusually long rear garden. Extending to almost 100 ft, this is
split lengthways down the middle, with one side owned by each of the two apartments in the building.
In practice, the current owners have an informal arrangement to share the whole space, which is
divided into areas of lawn and hard standing and provides several off-street parking spaces. The end
of the garden has vehicle access from Lytton Road.
LOCAL LIFE
- The apartment is at the heart of the friendly New Barnet neighbourhood with its many local
shops, restaurants, and other amenities.
- New Barnet train station is virtually opposite the apartment. From here you can be in King’s
Cross in 21 minutes and Moorage in the City in 31 minutes.
- There are plenty of green spaces within walking distance, from Victoria Recreation Ground (and
New Barnet Leisure Centre) just ten minutes away, to the extensive Trent Park just over a mile
from your door.
