4 bed terraced house for sale

Ossian Road, Stroud Green, London N4

A beautifully reworked four-bedroom Victorian house on Ossian Road, extending to almost 2,500 sq ft and combining generous proportions with an exceptionally considered contemporary finish.

The house has been extensivley refurbished, with new timber sash windows, new electrics and plumbing, underfloor heating on the lower two levels and a carefully chosen palette of natural materials throughout. At its heart is a superb kitchen and dining space spanning the rear of the lower ground floor, opening directly onto the landscaped garden through full-width Cortizo sliding doors. Elsewhere are two distinct reception spaces, a separate media room and four generous bedrooms, creating a house that feels both substantial and genuinely practical for family life.
Inside


The house is approached through a newly fitted front door into the raised ground floor, where the proportions and character of the original building are immediately apparent.

To the front, a handsome bay-windowed reception room provides the principal living space. Its scale is particularly impressive, with engineered timber flooring and a restrained decorative treatment allowing the architecture of the room to do much of the work. Beyond is a second sitting room, creating a more informal space at the centre of the house, while a separate room to the rear is currently arranged as a study but works equally well as the fourth bedroom.

The lower ground floor has been completely reconsidered around everyday family life. To the rear is an impressive kitchen and dining room measuring over 25 ft in length. A bespoke fitted kitchen is arranged around a large central island, with porcelain worktops and integrated Smeg appliances. Mandarin Stone tiling and carefully selected finishes add texture without overwhelming the room, while two substantial rooflights bring natural light deep into the plan.

Full-width Cortizo sliding doors open the dining area directly onto the garden, creating a particularly strong connection between inside and out.

At the front of this floor is a generous media room, prepared for the installation of a full cinema system, allowing the next owner to select their preferred equipment. A separate utility room and additional bathroom/WC complete the level.

The first floor contains two particularly good bedrooms. The larger sits across the front of the house behind the original-style bay, while the second is positioned quietly to the rear. They are served by a beautifully finished family bathroom, with Lusso Stone fittings and finishes and electric underfloor heating.

The upper floor is given entirely to another substantial bedroom, extending to almost 16 ft in width and making excellent use of the roof space. Rooflights bring light from above, while useful eaves storage runs alongside the room. A separate shower room completes the floor.

Throughout the house, new timber sash windows have been installed alongside new plumbing and electrics. Underfloor heating runs across the lower and raised ground floors, with electric underfloor heating to the bathrooms.
Outside


The traditional bay-fronted façade has been carefully refreshed and repointed, retaining the rhythm and character of the surrounding terrace while introducing a new front door and restored exterior detailing.

To the rear, the landscaped garden extends approximately 22 ft beyond the house. It is reached directly from the kitchen and dining room, with the wide Cortizo doors allowing the garden to become a natural continuation of the living space in warmer months.

There is also a front garden of approximately 16 ft, providing a welcome sense of separation from the street.
