Oakwood Park Road, London, N14

This double fronted four-bedroom semi-detached house has an integral garage, two off street parking spaces, gated side access to the garden, and a gate into Oakwood Park. It’s in a prime location within easy walking distance of Southgate station and shops.

Located in a wide, tree-lined road, this is an appealing property with a smart façade and gravelled front drive. The sheltered porch opens into a central hallway with a storage cupboard and a shower room. There are three large rooms the ground floor – two living rooms, and a modern kitchen/diner.

The front living room has great natural light thanks to the south-facing bay window, welcoming engineered wood floor, and smart plantation shutters. The gas fire provides a focal point, and a bespoke alcove cupboard and shelves provide storage and display space. The second living room has a similar serene ambience and décor (including a gas fire and bespoke storage), and the bonus of great garden views though full height windows and French doors that open onto the garden terrace.

The property has been extended to create a spacious kitchen/diner. Measuring more than 13ft square, this fabulous space is flooded with light from two skylights, a wide window above the sink, and French doors to the garden. Plantation shutters and all-white décor maintain the New England feel, as do the Shaker-style fitted cupboards (with integrated appliances including a Neff dishwasher) and the engineered wood floor. There’s also a door to a handy utility room.

The considered décor continues upstairs, where the engineered wood flooring, plantation shutters, downlighters, and white or neutral walls, create coherence and calm. The main front bedroom and the second large double bedroom at the rear both have bay windows and extensive fitted wardrobes, the third bedroom is also a double, whilst the fourth single bedroom also has fitted wardrobes and is currently used as a dressing room. The family bathroom has white metro-tiled walls and is fitted with a bath with an overhead shower, a wall-hung washbasin, and freestanding WC. A window provides plenty of light and ventilation.

The property is in immaculate condition and has the potential to add even more space by converting the integral garage into living space or by extending into the loft.

Theres’ also lots of space outside, where the delightful 130ft garden has a large, paved terrace, a long lawn bordered by a raised bed with mature planting, and a meandering path to two further terraces, a wooden summerhouse with power, and a gate directly into Oakwood Park. It can be accessed from the front of the house via a gated side alley as well as directly from the kitchen and the rear living room.
