Description
We are delighted to present this Edwardian family home, brimming with charm and character with the benefit of a large conservatory extension. Ideal for both growing and established families, the property offers generous living space and includes a garage and unofficial gated access to Oakleigh Park Tennis and Swimming Club (which also cuts about 5 minutes off the walking time to the station and shops.)
Conveniently situated just a 10-12 minute walk (or 5-7 minutes if you cut through the tennis club grounds) from the heart of Whetstone, you'll enjoy easy access to a vibrant mix of independent shops, cafés, restaurants, excellent transport links to Central London, and highly regarded local schools.
The ground floor features a peaceful bay-fronted reception room, a separate dining room that flows seamlessly into a large open plan conservatory kitchen/breakfast room that ultimately leads out to the mature rear garden - ideal for relaxed summer meals or entertaining guests in style.
Upstairs, the first floor offers three well-proportioned bedrooms, all able to accommodate double beds, and a big family bathroom which benefits from a separate shower cubicle. On the second floor, you'll find a tranquil principal bedroom - complete with hand basin and offering lovely views over the rear garden. There is potential to increase the size of the dormer on this floor to incorporate a 2nd bath/shower room.
Step outside and discover a beautifully peaceful 80+' rear garden, boasting a good size patio, a selection of mature trees and a lawn that gets good amounts of light and shade during the day. There is also access to the garage which is currently a workshop but could be utilised as a gym or an office space. From the back garden there is gated access to the shared driveway that leads to the front of the house.
To the front, the property offers parking for at least two cars (potentially three), along with a shared driveway providing further parking options by arrangement. A side access gate allows for easy deliveries and can even accommodate a car or van via the shared drive. There is also a small, walled front garden.
Despite its peaceful setting, the home remains wonderfully connected. Nestled in the heart of Whetstone, you're in Zone 4 with Totteridge & Whetstone (Northern Line) just a short walk away, offering quick access to Central London. Arnos Grove (Piccadilly Line) is also nearby, with fast links into The City and Heathrow.
Whetstone itself offers a vibrant high street with Waitrose, M&S, cafés, restaurants, and excellent bus routes. Families will appreciate the abundance of local green spaces, recreation grounds, and proximity to top-rated schools—including Queenswell Primary (right on your doorstep) and several outstanding secondary options like The Compton, East Barnet, Wren Academy, QE Boys & Girls, and Dame Alice Owen’s.
This home offers the best of both worlds—tranquil suburban living with all the benefits of London life just minutes away.
