Spencer Courtyard is a collection of five contemporary homes in Finchley, designed by award-winning practice, Kennedy Twaddle.

The project has transformed a former merchant’s yard, into a private gated mews, comprising three single-storey houses and two apartments. The varying mass and volume of the Courtyard, characterised by angular, pitched sedum roofs and intricate brickwork, establishes a dynamic visual dialogue, celebrating materiality and craft, in a truly modern approach to living.

These particular apartments are positioned to one side of the courtyard and have elevated views over the roofs of the three houses below, characterised by their beautiful, green pitched roofs.

The ground floor apartment extends to 880 sq ft and is configured around a private central courtyard; surrounded by large sections of glazing on three sides,it acts like a light-well, drawing natural light deep into the plan. There are two bedrooms and a family bathroom at one end of the property and an open-plan kitchen, living and dining room at the other.

The first floor apartment extends to 980 sq ft internally. The most impressive space is arguably the open-plan kitchen and living room at one end of the plan; it has wonderful views over the pitched green roofs below and exploits high ceilings with exposed eaves to create a dramatic sense of volume. A double bedroom is positioned at the rear of the plan at this end of the apartment. A further bedroom and a family bathroom occupy the opposite end of the apartment. Oak parquet floors run across both apartments and they both have bespoke, handmade kitchens with birch ply units.

Spencer Courtyard is tucked away behind Regents Park Road. The courtyard itself is accessed via private entrance and is gated.

Regents Park Road is a lively thoroughfare, leading down towards Golders Green; it has a wide range of shops, pubs and cafes. Towards the station there is Tintico, an excellent cafe and coffee shop, seconds from the Tube. Stephens House and Gardens is a beautiful Grade ll-listed house, with extensive landscaped gardens, gifted to the public by Henry Charles ‘Inky’ Stephens of the Stephens’ Ink Company; the house also home to Inky’s Stables Cafe, a popular weekend brunch spot.

Spencer Courtyard is a seven-minute walk from Finchley Central tube station, which runs Northern Line services to central London in approximately 18 minutes.
