Set behind electric double gates and an expansive driveway, this substantial detached house offers over 2,500 sq ft of flexible family space in Southgate. The ground floor centres on an impressive L-shaped living room and a large secondary reception with a glazed rooflight, while the fitted kitchen, utility room and two ground-floor W/Cs support everyday family use. The secluded, landscaped rear garden with patio and lighting is a strong entertaining asset.
Upstairs are four double bedrooms with built-in wardrobes and a large family bathroom. Practical storage includes multiple cupboards on the landing and a loft room with full-height centre and a walkway. The property presents scope to modernise throughout — the EPC is currently low (43) but shows good potential (78), and cavity walls are assumed uninsulated, so energy improvements would add value and comfort.
Location is a key strength: a short walk to Southgate’s shops, cafés and Piccadilly line tube, plus easy access to Grovelands Park. Local schools include several rated Good and a top-10%-ranked secondary, making the house well suited to established families seeking space and strong local amenities.
Important practical points: tenure is freehold, council tax band G (relatively high), and the house is offered to market for the first time in 40 years — long-term care and selective updating should be expected. The plot size, gated driveway and off-street parking for several cars are significant pluses for car-owning households.
