This attractive mid-terrace Victorian house on Effingham Road offers nearly 1,200 sq ft across three floors — a rare family home in the Harringay Ladder that has come to market for the first time in over 40 years. High ceilings, bay windows and decorative masonry preserve period character while the double-glazed windows and contemporary living area make day-to-day life comfortable.
The ground floor delivers a large double reception and a kitchen/diner that opens onto a private rear garden — a useful outdoor space for children or entertaining. There is a convenient shower room on the ground floor and a family bathroom upstairs serving three good-sized double bedrooms, giving practical layouts for family life or sharers.
Location is a key strength: Turnpike Lane (Piccadilly Line) and Harringay Overground are within easy reach, Green Lanes’ cafés and shops are moments away, and Finsbury Park provides nearby green space. Several well-regarded primary and secondary schools sit within easy distance, making the house appealing to families.
The house offers clear potential to add value through modest updating and extension (subject to consents). Buyers should note the small plot size and that the solid brick walls are assumed uninsulated, so insulation and energy-efficiency improvements may be advisable. Overall this is a characterful home in a lively, well-connected part of North London with scope to modernise and personalise.
