Description

SITUATION
Set within the tranquil heart of highly desirable Totteridge Village, Red Lodge is a striking modern family home offering over 8,500 sq ft of elegant living space, wrapped in just under an acre of mature, landscaped gardens.

Totteridge is a very desirable suburb of North London, being just 9 miles from Hyde Park Corner as the crow flies, and with excellent transport links.

The house is a 20-minute walk from Totteridge underground station with frequent trains into central London. Journey times are between 25 and 35 minutes depending on destination, with the advantage of a guaranteed seat on the outbound journey.

This impressive residence blends generous proportions, privacy, and timeless charm and offers huge scope for redevelopment or a completely new build on its substantial plot.

Totteridge offers huge charm with its tree-lined streets and open green spaces, yet central London is under an hour away.

Excellent local amenities and prestigious schools make this a truly exceptional place to live.

DESCRIPTION
Whether you wish to enjoy Red Lodge as it stands, reimagine its interiors, or embark on a full redevelopment, opportunities of this scale and setting are rarely available.

From the moment you step inside, the double-height entrance hall and floor-to-ceiling windows flood the home with natural light, leading into the opulent drawing room, where hand crafted cornices, grand proportions, and a statement marble fireplace create a sophisticated yet welcoming atmosphere.

The spacious kitchen with warm wood cabinetry, a breakfast bar, and space for informal family dining flows into a formal dining room ideal for entertaining, while a dedicated study provides the perfect work from-home retreat. The study could also be converted to a snug, offering a cosy and informal alternative use for the space.

Upstairs, three sumptuous ensuite bedrooms, each exceeding 320 sq ft, provide comfort and flexibility.

There is scope for these rooms to be reconfigured to create one or two additional bedrooms if desired. The self-contained annexe adds further versatility, featuring two bedrooms, a reception room, kitchen, and bathroom— perfect for teenage children wanting some independence or for those wanting multi-generational living, guest accommodation, or live-in staff.

Wellness and leisure are elevated by a generously large swimming pool complex, complete with sauna and changing rooms, offering year-round enjoyment.

Twin double garages offer ample parking and conversion potential. Whether you wish to enjoy Red Lodge as it stands,
reimagine its interiors, or embark on a full redevelopment, opportunities of this scale and setting are rarely available.
