2 bed flat for sale

Cipher Court, Flowers Close, Dollis Hill NW2

Brickworks says


Built in 2010, Cipher Court tips its hat to Dollis Hill’s code-breaking past, standing on ground steeped in wartime ingenuity. Inside, this purpose-built two-bedroom flat is all calm neutrals and graceful simplicity, the sort of space that encourages you to exhale the minute you step through the door.

The main living area is flooded with light thanks to wall-to-wall windows and a generous skylight overhead, making even grey January afternoons feel optimistic. A balcony extends from the main living space, with far-reaching westerly views, perfect for sunset gazing or a quiet glass of something at the end of the day. The principal bedroom has its own en-suite shower room, while both bedrooms have built-in wardrobes, and there’s a hallway cupboard for life’s necessary clutter. It’s a home that works quietly in the background, leaving you free to get on with living.

Dollis Hill itself is leafy and low-key, anchored by the 86-acre Gladstone Park, your new excuse for morning runs or weekend loafing. With the Jubilee line nearby, central London is an easy hop when the bright lights call.
The owners say


We’ve really enjoyed living at Cipher Court. There’s a genuine sense of community here - it feels friendly without being in your face. The flat itself is nice and quiet, as there’s no flat above us, which has made working from home and slow Sunday mornings equally peaceful.

Being just a five-minute walk from Gladstone Park has been a huge bonus for us. We’ve spent countless afternoons there - coffees in hand, long walks, and impromptu picnics in the summer. It’s one of those green spaces that quickly becomes part of your routine, and we’ll really miss having it so close.

Anything else:
Flowers Close is a coveted cul-de-sac, its name a nod to the brilliant codebreaker Thomas Flowers, the engineer behind Colossus, developed alongside the pioneering minds at Bletchley Park. The street sits beside the former Post Office Research Station, which worked in close partnership with Britain’s wartime codebreaking efforts. You’re also remarkably close to the Cabinet War Rooms, Churchill’s subterranean nerve centre during wwii. It’s the sort of address where the everyday feels lightly threaded with history.
The legal bit


While we strive to create true-to-life photographs, floor plans and descriptions, our marketing material is only a guide. Purchasers should always visit in person, ask relevant questions and triple-check details. Brickworks takes our duty of care incredibly seriously and takes all reasonable steps to ensure all presented information is correct. However, we sometimes rely on the accuracy of the information provided to us by the seller and others. Also, please note that we often round up/down total floor plan measurements and/or use approximate distances.
