St. James Lane, Muswell Hill

We have a unique garden apartment arranged over three floors in a period Edwardian property with its own private entrance from the street giving you the feeling of a house. A share of freehold is provided eliminating concern for various service charges/fees that often occur with leasehold properties. There are no communal areas and the private front door opens to a period tiled hallway. Pass under carved architectural features to the first floor leading to the main bathroom, double bedroom with en-suite, a second double bedroom and a rear terrace affording views over gardens and impressive uninhibited views of London. The terrace connects to a private well landscaped garden with mature plantings. The second floor opens to flexible living space with two substantial rooms each with their own door access but connected internally via period pine dividing doors. This feature allows flexible use of the rear room as either a third double bedroom, a dining room or to create a substantial eat in-kitchen according to the new owner’s preference. Alternatively, opening the dividing doors creates an impressive 30 foot in length living area with bay windows overlooking the church and vicarage at the top of St. Jame’s Lane. An impressive floating staircase for access to a dormer serving as a large double bedroom with reading nook area and an en-suite. Bi-folding windows create an inset covered terrace that opens to more top of the hill far-reaching views over London skyline. An abundance of skylights and large open space above the staircase provide much light. Period features are accented with stained glass throughout and original fireplaces.
Prime location describes this property set at the top of the hill within a minute of all the shops and restaurants and yet its off-set position provides a peaceful all- round setting. Muswell Hill offers a family-oriented community environment with excellent schools. Highgate tube is easily accessible with bus links into central London.
