Property description


Located on the ground floor flat of a semi-detached house in popular Old Park Road, this 819 sq ft flat has lots of living space and a private 31ft garden. Well-maintained and decorated with style, it combines generous period proportions and original features with a modern palette and contemporary fixtures and fittings.

The wealth of original features is apparent from the moment you enter the hallway which has colourful original encaustic tiles. This leads to a large open plan main living space with stunning stripped wood floorboards throughout. This space is divided into a living room, dining room, and kitchen which share the same easy ambience with original features complemented by modern updates.

The lounge area has a traditional feel, with deep skirting boards, cornicing and a ceiling rose, and an original cast iron fireplace with bespoke alcove cupboards and shelving to either side. There’s plenty of space for a couple of large sofas, and the room runs seamlessly into the dining area at the rear of the property. This has a charming side window with original leaded lights, and double glazed French doors that provide lovely garden views and open onto a paved terrace. The well-equipped kitchen next to the dining area has white wall and floor cabinets, integrated and freestanding appliances, and a window above the sink. A glossy grey tiled floor help defines the space and adds practicality.

Both bedrooms have stripped wood floorboards, and original features including cornicing/dado rails, and a ceiling rose. The fabulous main front bedroom is a generous size and has a wide bay window with bespoke plantation shutters. The second bedroom, also a double, has an original sash window. Accessed via the kitchen, the bathroom is a good size and has two windows. It’s fitted with a shower/bath with a glass screen and a freestanding traditional style washbasin and WC. The floor is tiled. There’s also a WC off the hallway.

The property comes with gated side access to the rear garden, of which it has sole use. Measuring over 30ft by 20ft, the smart landscaped, low-maintenance garden has a large paved terrace, a practical artificial turf lawn, and a wood summerhouse that matches the graphite grey boundary fencing.

The flat has a 126-year lease, annual ground rent of £10, and no service charge.
Local life


This property is in a prime, tree-lined residential road in central Palmers Green. Old Park Road is home to a vibrant local community and is a designated Play Street, closing to vehicles from 2 to 5pm on the last Sunday each month. Located just moments from the many shops along Aldermans Hill and Green Lanes, the flat is also close to the station and Broomfield Park.

It’s a short stroll to Palmers Green station (0.4 miles) where there are fast, direct trains to King’s Cross (19 minutes). Alternatively, you can take the tube into the West End from the stations at Southgate or Arnos Grove, which are both a short cycle or bus ride away.

The property has great access to green spaces. 21-hecatre Broomfield Park, one of the highlights of this friendly North London area, is less than five minutes’ walk away at the end of the road. Its many attractions include three lakes, a sensory garden, bandstand, community orchard and fantastic views of Alexander Palace, the City and Westminster.
