Cascade Avenue, Muswell Hill N10

Set within a charming row of just five houses, tucked away off Cascade Avenue and sharing a beautifully landscaped front garden, this wonderful end of terrace Collins-built home is a rare blend of period character, thoughtful design and modern living.

From the moment you approach, there is an almost countryside feel to the house, with landscaped greenery and beautiful brick work. Step inside and the character continues, with wooden floors, double-glazed timber sash windows and original-style fireplaces sitting effortlessly alongside the more contemporary touches. It is a home that has been thoughtfully refurbished over the years, retaining its charm while creating bright, practical spaces for modern family life.

The ground floor is particularly impressive, arranged around a generous L-shaped open-plan layout. The front reception room overlooks the landscaped front garden and leads through to a beautiful kitchen/dining space, with wooden flooring and two fireplaces creating warmth and character throughout. The space has been cleverly designed to draw natural light deep into the house, while beautiful French doors open directly onto the garden, creating a wonderful connection between the house and outside space. A downstairs WC completes this floor.

Upstairs, the first floor provides two excellent double bedrooms, one with its own en-suite, alongside a further WC and a family shower room. The accommodation continues on the top floor with a superb principal suite, complete with its own shower room. Two enormous skylights flood this level with natural light, creating a wonderfully peaceful and private retreat.

Outside, the rear garden is a real surprise and one of the home's standout features. Beyond the landscaped garden sits a substantial three-car garage with a mezzanine level above, offering exceptional storage, workspace or potential for a variety of uses. It is accessed directly from the garden, while vehicular access is via St James Lane a particularly rare and valuable feature for this area.

Throughout the house, the attention to detail is clear, from the beautiful timber sash windows and bespoke lighting to the clever use of space and abundance of natural light. It is a home that manages to feel both characterful and contemporary, with every part carefully considered.

The location is equally appealing. Positioned on a peaceful, tree-lined residential road bordering the celebrated Rookfield Estate, you are within easy reach of Muswell Hill Broadway, with its excellent selection of independent shops, cafés, restaurants and cinema. For green space, Highgate Wood, Queen's Wood and Alexandra Palace are all close by, while excellent bus services provide easy access towards Highgate Underground and the Northern Line.

A genuinely special home, combining the charm of a period house with the space, light and practicality of a thoroughly considered modern family home and with the added rarity of a three-car garage at the rear.
