This wonderful three-bedroom house, built in the 1960s, is located on a quiet street in the heart of Muswell Hill. It is one of a terrace of six houses on Muswell Avenue, all of which are set back from the street, behind their own private front gardens. The current owners have recently renovated the house, preserving many of the original features whilst modernising the space, to create a light and characterful home.

To the rear of the house is a spacious, open-plan living and dining area. Large windows span the full length of the room and bi-fold glazed doors open onto a south-west facing terrace and an immaculately planted, private garden. Inside, herringbone parquet runs underfoot. The kitchen can be accessed from the dining room, or the entrance hallway and has been modernised with a plywood kitchen and bespoke-ply shelving. Alongside the hallway there is also a utility cupboard, and further storage space.

An original wooden staircase leads up to the three double-bedrooms. The master bedroom is situated to the front of the house and incorporates a raised reading area recessed within one of the walls, with leafy views over the front garden and with storage underneath. The current owners use the other two bedrooms as an office space, and a snug respectively. Original floorboards have been revealed throughout and painted white. A shared bathroom serves the three rooms and is currently filled with hanging plants, and lit from a skylight above.

Muswell Avenue is a no-through road and is brilliantly quiet as a result. There are no parking restrictions on the street, and the house is complete with a separate garage, which currently doubles as a workshop.

Muswell Hill Broadway is within easy walking distance with cafes, restaurants, an Everyman Cinema and Planet Organic. Just 5 minutes from the house is a parade of shops which include an organic greengrocer, a butcher/ baker and cafe, The Maid of Muswell pub and a great restaurant, Korto, which serves fantastic tapas and good wine. The ancient Coldfall Woods are close by, as well as the Parkland Walk, a pedestrian leafy walk on a disused railway track, which connects Muswell Hill to Finsbury Park, via nearby Highgate.

Muswell Hill can be accessed via numerous train stations. Highgate (Northern Line) is a ten-minute bus ride away. Alexandra Palace station is 20 minutes by foot, from which the Thameslink train runs to Finsbury Park and from there to Kings Cross and Blackfriars). Nearby Bounds Green station is on the Piccadilly Line.
