Church Hill, London, N21

Located in a wide tree-lined road in Winchmore Hill close to The Green and the station, this semi detached three bedroom house has a huge open plan living area, a sunny southwest-facing garden, and two garden buildings.

With 1,622 square feet of space set over two floors, a garage and garden studio, and a sunny southwest-facing garden, this three bedroom house is an appealing property well-suited to modern living. The ground floor has been opened up at the rear to create a spectacular open plan room which is the heart of the home. There’s also a more traditional living room at the front of the property, and a downstairs WC. The first floor has retained its original layout, with three bedrooms and a large family bathroom.

The house is set back behind a block-paved drive and entered via sheltered porch that open into a wide hallway with a WC and bespoke built-in understairs storage. The front living room has an elegant feel with generous proportions, great natural light, built-in alcove shelving, a lovely stripped wood floor, and attractive period features including a cast iron fireplace with a decorative tiled surround, and ceiling cornicing.

The open plan space at the rear of the property also has a stripped wood floor and an original fireplace, and features a ceiling rose and picture rails. Measuring almost 25ft by 21ft, it easily accommodates lounge and dining areas, and the kitchen. The white walls and ceiling throughout amplify the good natural light from the wide windows and glazed doors lining the rear wall that also provide garden views and open onto a paved terrace. The U-shaped kitchen is well-equipped, with fitted wall and floor cabinets, freestanding and integrated appliances, a metro-tiled splashback, and lots of worktop space.

The first floor also has lovely stripped wood floors in all rooms - two large double bedrooms, an approximately 8ft square single bedroom, and a large family bathroom. Both doubles have wide bay windows, and all rooms have original picture rails. The bathroom is a serene space with excellent natural light and ventilation thanks to two windows, and a freestanding rolltop bath, large walk-in shower, bidet, WC, and stylish wall hung washbasin console. Subtly patterned wall tiles and penny tiles in the shower perfectly complete the considered décor.

The huge 100 ft garden, which has an ideal southwest-facing orientation, is a delightful space with an open aspect and secluded spaces. Comprising a long lawn bordered by mature planting. It’s also home to a garage, a covered lean-to terrace, and a 9’9” x 7’5” studio. Both garden buildings have windows and an electricity supply, so are suited to a variety of uses.
