Set on a quiet cul-de-sac in N20, this 1930s semi-detached house offers spacious family living across approximately 1,340 sq ft. The ground floor delivers a bay-fronted living room, separate dining room and a fitted kitchen, while three double bedrooms and a family bathroom sit on the first floor. A southerly-facing rear garden, garage and private driveway add practical outdoor space and parking.
The location is a clear strength: Oakleigh Park mainline station is about 0.5 miles and Totteridge & Whetstone tube is nearby, making commutes simple. Local High Road shops (including Waitrose and M&S), good primary and secondary schools and green recreation areas are all within easy reach — attractive for families and commuters alike.
Built in the 1930s, the house retains period character such as bay windows and brick frontage, but there are some trade-offs to note. The walls are likely uninsulated solid brick and the double glazing appears to pre-date 2002, so energy efficiency and heating costs may be higher than modern homes. Council tax is described as expensive.
There is scope to extend subject to planning consent, offering clear potential to add value. Buyers should commission their own surveys and service checks: the property’s services and appliances have not been tested and some updating or insulation work may be needed to modernise heating and reduce running costs.
