Lismore Road, West Green, London N17

BRICKWORKS SAYS

This four-bedroom home has been thoughtfully renovated by its current owners, emphasising natural light and flow. The living room sets the tone with its broad bay window, complete with built-in bench seating. Original fireplaces honour its Victorian heritage, while clever storage under the stairs and a sleek, handleless kitchen bring it comfortably into the present day. The kitchen links seamlessly to the dining room, living room and garden, keeping everyone connected without ever feeling crowded.

Upstairs, the spaces have been shaped with care. The bedrooms are warm, welcoming and adaptable—rooms that can flex as life changes, whether that means study nooks, play dens or guest hideaways. At the very top, the double with en-suite offers a true retreat, a sanctuary away from the hustle and bustle of life below.

Step outside, and West Green does the rest. Downhills Park is a stone’s throw away, offering tennis, basketball, playgrounds, or simply space to wander. Locals gravitate towards The Palm for Sunday roasts, Hochima Pho for warming bowls of noodles, and Perkyns for damn fine coffee. And with Seven Sisters and Turnpike Lane close by, you’re plugged directly into the Victoria and Piccadilly lines, meaning the whole city’s within easy reach.

THE OWNERS SAY

We remember our first visit to this light-filled house vividly, on a bright summer day a decade ago. It has always felt natural, bright, and open—a feeling augmented by its proximity to Downhills Park (somewhere that’s always felt like an extended garden to us). We’ve tried to build on this through natural textures and by opening up the space as we created our home.

It will be difficult to leave the local community—our days are filled with welcome micro interactions (a nod of the head, a wave of the hand…) with folks we know and love. It’s a house for all seasons—long summers spent with friends in the garden, the changing colours of the local parks in autumn, and cosy winters spent snuggling by the fire. This home will always be in our hearts.

Recent work:
A brand-new boiler was installed in December 2023 with a 10-year warranty, paired with cast-iron radiators downstairs and column radiators upstairs. In January 2024, the kitchen doorway was widened to create a better flow into the dining room, and the old back door was replaced with a double-width heritage patio door that allows more light in. Around the same time, new oak flooring was laid across the ground floor, the kitchen was retiled, and a new oven, hob, fridge, and filtered tap were added. In spring 2024, a wood-burning stove with a new chimney flue lining was fitted, also with a 10-year warranty. Finally, in summer 2025, the garden was retiled and new sleepers were added.

Getting around:
Seven Sisters (Victoria line, London Overground, Z3), Bruce Grove (London Overground, Z3), and Turnpike Lane (Piccadilly line, Z3) are all within walking distance. Seven Sisters is also easily accessible by bus—the 230 runs along the bottom of the road. The 230 also heads to Tottenham Hale, which has a half-hourly service to Stansted Airport, making international travel that little bit easier. London’s cycle network is a quick pedal away too, including Cycleway 1, which connects into central London.

Onward plans:
The current owners have been offered an opportunity to move abroad that they can’t pass up, and so are able to sell chain-free.

Anything else:
In 2022, planning permission was sought and granted for an extension into the side return.

THE LEGAL BIT

While we strive to produce true-to-life photographs, floor plans and descriptions, our marketing materials serve only as a guide. Prospective buyers should visit the property in person, ask questions, and verify details. Brickworks is committed to accuracy but we often rely on information from sellers and others. Please note that we may round total floor plan measurements and use approximate distances.
