IF YOU LIVED HERE...

You’ll love the sense of space this generous home offers. With roomy proportions throughout, there’s plenty of flexibility when it comes to living arrangements. The separate kitchen and reception room provide a great starting point…

The two bedrooms are well balanced, while the bathroom is also a good size with an over-bath shower.

Outside, the impressively sized garden is a real highlight, with mature foliage creating a sense of privacy.

Just a few metres beyond your front door, you’ll come across the part-pedestrianised section of Francis Road, which is now recognised across the capital as a hub thanks to its eclectic mix of eateries and stores, ranging from upmarket deli Yardarm to independent store Dreamhouse records. You’ll love the sense of community too, especially during annual events such as the Francis Road Jumble Trail and Street Party.

You’re also perfectly positioned to enjoy the eclectic bars around the Grove Green Road, including the Filly Brook, Heathcote & Star and the Northcote Arms - one of our faves.
