Southwood Lane, London, N6

A rare opportunity to acquire an exceptional two-bedroom, period garden apartment with its own private entrance, bespoke Victorian-style garden studio and panoramic views over London.

Tucked away in the heart of Highgate Village, this remarkable home offers an extraordinary combination of space, character and tranquillity.

The flat, predominantly arranged over one level offers generous accommodation being just under 1500 SQ. FT. High ceilings and original features combined with the craftmanship and creative vision of the late owner, renowned film-poster artist and designer Vic Fair, this flat offers genuine individuality.

At the heart of the property is a particularly impressive reception room, featuring a fireplace, large bay windows with French doors opening onto a private terrace/balcony. From here, far-reaching views of the London skyline and in the foreground the property’s beautifully established private garden – a secluded little oasis of mature trees, established planting and terraced pathways. Step down under a charming pergola, into an enchanting cobbled pathed garden which houses the glass art studio, designed and built by the owner as his creative workshop, which would offer wonderfully versatile space for an artist, designer, home office or simply as a peaceful retreat.
The accommodation includes two double bedrooms both with en-suites. The master bedroom has panelled walls and fitted furnishings and from here via a granite floored hallway leads to the bathroom and separate utility room with a small courtyard nestled between the bedroom and bathroom. The second bedroom is situated off the main hallway which has built in dressers, shelves and plans chest which house a single bunk, constructed by Vic to house his artwork but could easily be converted to fit a double bed or a home office/ study. A further guest WC is located off the entrance hall.

With the combination of the single level spacious accommodation, private garden and central location, this property would appeal equally to those looking to downsize, a smaller family wishing to be close to local schools or an artist / creative professional looking for an inspiring home and work studio
