Hewitt Road, London, N8

This gorgeous four-bedroom Victorian terrace, found on one of the prettiest streets on the ‘Harringay Ladder’, has oodles of character with many of the beautiful, Victorian features remaining.

Lovingly restored and extended on the ground floor, with an ambitious architecturally designed contemporary loft room cladded in red zinc, it manages to perfectly balance old with new, transforming this period property into a wonderful family home for someone looking to put down roots in Harringay.

Internal accommodation is arranged over three floors and provides 1672 Sq. ft / 155.30 Sq.m of living space including storage space.

Behind the attractive facade, you’ll find a stunning original tiled entrance hall. The ground floor is occupied by a light filled living/entertaining space - a large double through reception room with a large bay window. Original hidden panelled doors separate the two rooms, which benefit from unusually high ceilings and a pair of original fireplaces with solid wood floors throughout. The clean lines and minimal design of the all-white kitchen with beech worktops complement the elegant Victorian features of this huge 33ft kitchen-dining room. Large windows frame the kitchen to the side and rear, with a door providing access to the 35 ft. rear garden.

A beautiful Victorian staircase takes you up to the first floor which has three well proportioned double bedrooms, the largest of which spans the width of the house, featuring a large double-glazed wood sash bay window. High ceilings and Scandinavian inspired light wood floors create a sense of airiness and space. Off the landing, there’s a Moroccan inspired stunning large family bathroom with a separate walk-in shower and freestanding bath. Up above, part of the loft space has been converted to provide a further bright spacious bedroom with a large french door out to the flat roof as well as a stunning roof light with an automatic opening. This room is stunning and truly one of a kind, making this house standout.

The 'Harringay Ladder' is a collection of Victorian built parallel streets, the placement of which forms the shape of a ladder. Harringay Green Lanes is an amazingly vibrant neighbourhood where you can find literally anything you could want in the local shops, many of which are open 24 hours. There are some great restaurants and lovely cafés. And despite being so close to such an energetic hub, the house and street are quiet and peaceful.

Green spaces are plentiful. Finsbury Park is on your doorstep, just a few minutes’ walk from the property. Take a stroll along the gorgeous Parkland Walk. The Railway Fields, Woodbury Wetlands, Clissold Park and the Climbing Castle are also firm favourites and very close by.

Transport links are excellent; the property is equidistant from Manor House (Zone 2) and Turnpike Lane on the Piccadilly Line. You also have Harringay or Hornsey Train Stations which provide fast, direct access to Finsbury Park, Kings Cross, Old Street and Moorgate.

If you have kids, you’re also almost certainly guaranteed a place at South Harringay primary school with its rapidly shrinking catchment area! This well-regarded school currently has a "Good" Ofsted rating and is in the top 2% of schools in England. There are endless kids’ activities and community groups in the area for those with young families.
