An original late‑1800s coach house positioned behind gated driveways on a very large plot in Totteridge Common. The detached property offers generous reception space including a triple‑aspect living/dining room, a further reception room, kitchen/breakfast room and a glass‑roofed sitting area opening to the garden — ideal for family entertaining and flexible day‑to‑day living. The fourth bedroom currently functions as a dressing room; the principal bedroom has an en suite.
The house occupies roughly 2,539 sq ft on a substantial, well‑screened plot with a detached double garage and sweeping driveway for multiple cars. Local indicators point to a very affluent area with low crime, good schooling nearby and easy road and rail access to central London. There is scope to extend or reconfigure subject to planning (STPP) for anyone seeking to add value.
Important practical points: the property predates 1900 and has solid brick walls with no confirmed insulation, so buyers should allow for potential upgrade and ongoing maintenance. Broadband speeds are reported as very slow and council tax is very expensive. Heating is mains gas with boiler and radiators; glazing is double glazed but install date is unknown.
This home will suit families seeking space, character and privacy in a premier Totteridge location, or buyers aiming to enhance and modernise a distinctive period property. Its strengths are plot size, privacy and reception flexibility; its drawbacks are likely retrofit costs for insulation, modern communications infrastructure and higher running costs.
