Summary - Drylands Road, London, N8 N8 9HN
5 bed 1 bath Terraced
Spacious five-bedroom home with garden, cellar and strong school links.
Approximately 2,696 sq ft across four floors
Set on a prestigious tree-lined road near Crouch End Broadway, this substantial mid-terraced family house offers generous living space across four floors. Period features — high ceilings, ornate cornicing, bay windows and original fireplaces — give the home immediate character, while large reception rooms and a kitchen with an adjoining morning room support flexible family living.
The property extends to approximately 2,696 sq ft and includes five well-proportioned bedrooms, a family bathroom plus separate WC, a large lower-ground cellar and extensive eaves storage. A secluded rear garden of over 30ft provides private outdoor space uncommon for terraces in this area. Good local schools, Hornsey station and local amenities are all within easy walking distance.
The house requires modernisation throughout, offering a clear opportunity to reconfigure and update services, kitchens and bathrooms to contemporary standards. Constructed with solid brick walls (likely uninsulated) and served by mains gas heating to radiators, buyers should factor in refurbishment costs, potential insulation improvements and an above-average council tax band when budgeting.
Chain-free and with scope to increase value through sensible updating or loft/lower-ground remodelling (subject to planning), the home will suit a growing family wanting long-term space in a desirable North London location or an owner-occupier seeking a major refurbishment project to personalise.
