Set on a quiet, sought-after road in Hampstead Garden Suburb, this substantial five-bedroom semi-detached house offers nearly 2,000 sq ft of family living across three floors. Large windows and double doors bring natural light into the open-plan lounge/dining area and provide a pleasant view over a south-east facing rear garden suitable for children and al fresco dining. The property includes a garage and off-street driveway parking — a valuable asset in this location.
The house sits within strong school catchments including The Archer Academy and is only around 0.5 miles from East Finchley Underground, making it well placed for family life and commuting. Accommodation comprises a kitchen/breakfast room, family room/study, five bedrooms and three bathrooms (one en suite), giving flexibility for home working, guest rooms or growing children.
Practical considerations: the EPC rating is E and the walls are assumed to have no insulation, so energy efficiency improvements would be beneficial. Broadband speeds are slow locally and council tax is described as quite expensive. The area records above-average crime levels, which buyers should factor into budgeting and security plans.
This is a largely period property from the 1930s with character details such as parquet flooring and substantial room proportions. It presents well for a family seeking space and a desirable neighbourhood, yet also offers clear scope for modernisation — an opportunity to improve energy performance, update services and personalise the home to contemporary family needs.
