5 bed semi-detached house for sale

Lansdowne Road, London N3

Guide Price £975,000–£1,075,000

A handsome and substantial five-bedroom semi-detached family home arranged across three generous floors, complete with integral garage, off-street parking and an extraordinary rear garden, all enviably positioned on one of Finchley’s sought-after residential turnings.

Set behind a generous driveway, this characterful home combines period charm with significant potential for modernisation and extension. High ceilings, bay windows and feature fireplaces remain throughout, while the well-balanced layout offers an ideal foundation for a long-term family home. There is excellent scope to refurbish, reconfigure, convert the garage and extend further, subject to planning permission.

The ground floor is thoughtfully arranged for family living, with a bright bay-fronted reception room to the front, centred around a feature fireplace, while a second reception and dining space overlooks and opens directly onto the garden beyond. A separate fitted kitchen sits to the rear with convenient side access, offering clear potential for a dramatic open-plan transformation if desired.

Upstairs, the first floor hosts a collection of well-proportioned bedrooms alongside a family bathroom, while the upper level provides further versatile accommodation ideal for larger families, guest rooms or dedicated home-working space.

The true showpiece, however, lies to the rear. Exceptionally large, mature and wonderfully secluded, the garden feels almost park-like in scale and atmosphere. Meandering pathways weave through established planting, trees and hidden seating areas, creating a rare sense of tranquillity and escape. Whether landscaped further, enjoyed as-is or incorporated into a future extension project, the outdoor space presents an outstanding opportunity rarely found locally.
Ground Floor
Reception Room One – 14'11" x 13'9" (4.55m x 4.18m)A generously proportioned formal reception room positioned at the front of the property and enhanced by a wide curved bay window, allowing excellent natural light into the room. High ceilings and a feature fireplace reflect the property's period character, while the dimensions provide ample space for a substantial seating arrangement and additional occasional furniture.
Reception Room Two – 15'2" x 12'5" (4.63m x 3.79m)A spacious second reception room positioned towards the rear of the house, providing an excellent additional family living or dining space. Double doors open directly onto the rear garden, creating a particularly pleasant connection with the extensive outside space. This room could work equally well as a formal dining room, family room or entertaining space.
Kitchen – 15'11" x 7'11" (4.85m x 2.42m)A separate fitted kitchen positioned at the rear of the property with a range of fitted wall and base units, work surfaces and space for appliances. A window provides natural light and an outlook towards the side of the property. The existing arrangement is functional while also offering considerable potential for modernisation or possible reconfiguration with the adjoining reception space, subject to the necessary consents.
Utility Room – 7'10" x 5'11" (2.39m x 1.80m)A particularly useful separate utility room providing additional space away from the main kitchen for laundry appliances and household storage. Its position alongside the kitchen and garage makes it a practical addition for a larger family home.
Guest WC – 4'9" x 4'3" (1.46m x 1.30m)A convenient ground-floor cloakroom fitted with WC facilities and positioned away from the principal reception rooms, ideal for visitors and everyday family use.
Garage – 15'7" x 7'4" (4.74m x 2.23m)An attached garage positioned to the side of the property, providing valuable storage and additional practical space. Depending upon requirements, it may also present potential for conversion and incorporation into the main accommodation, subject to planning permission and building regulations.

First Floor
Bedroom Two – 12'11" x 11'11" (3.94m x 3.64m)An excellent-sized double bedroom positioned at the front of the first floor and featuring a broad bay window. The generous dimensions provide plenty of space for a double or king-size bed together with wardrobes and additional bedroom furniture.
Bedroom Three – 12'10" x 11'10" (3.90m x 3.60m)Another generously proportioned double bedroom with ample space for a large bed, wardrobes and freestanding furniture. Its near-square proportions make the room particularly easy to furnish.
Bedroom Four – 9'10" x 8'8" (3.00m x 2.63m)A well-proportioned bedroom suitable for use as a child's bedroom, guest room or home office. The room provides sufficient space for a bed together with storage and bedroom furniture.
Bedroom Five – 8'10" x 8'2" (2.70m x 2.50m)A useful fifth bedroom offering flexibility for a growing family. It would work particularly well as a child's bedroom, nursery, guest room or dedicated study/home-working space.
Family Bathroom – 7'9" x 6'0" (2.36m x 1.82m)A conveniently positioned family bathroom serving the first-floor bedrooms. The room is currently fitted with a bath and sanitaryware and provides a good foundation for modernisation to suit a purchaser's preferred style.

Second Floor – Principal Suite
Principal Bedroom – 19'6" x 13'7" (5.94m x 4.15m)An exceptionally spacious principal bedroom occupying much of the second floor and providing a real sense of privacy from the remainder of the accommodation. At almost 20 feet in length, the room comfortably accommodates a king-size bed alongside substantial additional furniture and benefits from excellent natural light.
Dressing Room/Wardrobe – 8'10" x 6'5" (2.70m x 1.95m)A dedicated dressing area adjoining the principal bedroom, providing valuable wardrobe and storage space without encroaching upon the main sleeping area. This helps create a genuine principal suite rather than simply an additional loft bedroom.
En-Suite Bathroom – 7'3" x 6'0" (2.22m x 1.82m)A private en-suite serving the principal bedroom and positioned alongside the dressing area. The existing bathroom provides excellent potential for a purchaser to create a contemporary private bathroom to complement the generous proportions of the principal suite.

Rear Garden
The rear garden is one of the property's standout features. Exceptionally large, mature and wonderfully secluded, it has an almost park-like quality, with established trees and planting, pathways and various areas that could be used for seating, entertaining and children's play. The scale of the garden also means that even if the house were extended, subject to planning permission, a substantial amount of outside space could potentially be retained.
