For Sale2 Bedroom House in Kenwood Road, Highgate, London, N6£750,000

Nestled along tree-lined Kenwood Road, this beautifully renovated freehold two-bedroom home is bright and inviting, combining comfort and character with clear potential for future growth. Positioned in one of Highgate’s most desirable settings and only a leisurely walk from the Northern Line, it offers a rare balance: a calm retreat that captures the charm of village life while placing the city within effortless reach. The entrance makes an immediate impression. A contemporary front garden with clean lines, smart fencing, and carefully chosen planting creates both privacy from the street and a genuine sense of welcome. More than an approach, it establishes a feeling of arrival that is refined, understated, and inviting. Inside, the reception unfolds into a dedicated dining area that feels exceptionally spacious, enhanced by lofty ceilings and large windows that bathe the interior in natural light. The proportions are unusually generous for a two-bedroom home, equally suited to relaxed everyday living or lively gatherings with friends. A classic and elegant fireplace anchors the room with character, while garden views extend the living space outdoors into a serene retreat. Practicality is thoughtfully addressed on this level, with bespoke under-stair storage providing a discreet, space-saving solution and a garden shed offering additional utility, ensuring convenience without compromise. The kitchen has been elegantly redesigned to transform a compact footprint into a space that is both efficient and stylish. Bespoke cabinetry and a sleek fridge-freezer, dishwasher, and washing machine are seamlessly designed, creating a clean, uncluttered aesthetic. Underfloor heating lends a touch of indulgence, while carefully planned storage ensures the room feels both practical and refined, proof that even a smaller kitchen can be beautifully luxurious. While the current layout works effortlessly, there remains the option of a side-return extension (STPP), which offers the chance to enlarge the ground-floor footprint and enhance long-term value. Ascending the newly renovated staircase, the sense of comfort continues. The main bedroom is bright and peaceful, with characterful windows that flood the space with natural light and complement its proportions. Large fitted wardrobes provide ample storage while maintaining a calm, uncluttered feel. The second bedroom, suited as a single or cosy semi-double, enjoys a pleasant garden outlook that fills the space with light. With its own separate storage cupboard, it works equally well as a guest bedroom or study. Stepping into the family bathroom, you find a space unexpectedly generous for a home of this size. It features a bath with an overhead shower, a spacious basin with cabinet storage, and a full-size window that fills the room with natural light and ventilation. Underfloor heating completes the room, adding warmth and comfort during the colder months. The private rear garden has been freshly renovated with a new lawn, new fencing, and carefully selected planting that brings colour and softness through the seasons. Larger than typical for the area, it offers a rare combination of seclusion and versatility, equally effective for summer entertaining, al fresco dining, children’s play, or quiet retreat. Framed by mature trees beyond the boundary, it also enjoys an added sense of privacy. Its layout creates a natural flow that extends the living space outdoors, while a shed at the far end ensures enjoyment is matched by practicality. Beyond its present comfort, the house carries clear room to grow. Alongside the side-return option (STPP), there is scope for a loft conversion (STPP). Together, these possibilities give future owners the freedom to expand, add value, and adapt the home to evolving needs, making it both a rewarding residence today and a prudent investment for tomorrow. A community of belonging and tradition: Since 2012, the current owners have found more than just a house here; they have discovered a way of life shaped by warmth and connection. Neighbours are more than acquaintances, often sharing greetings, meals, and quiet gestures of care. When their child was born recently, nearly every household visited with gifts and cards, a moving expression of collective kindness. Each Christmas and New Year, cards and small celebrations are exchanged, keeping traditions and community spirit alive. Connectivity, amenities, and green space: Highgate Underground (Northern Line) is just a short, leisurely walk away, with East Finchley also nearby, providing swift links to the West End and City. Highgate Village offers a range of independent cafés, shops, and historic pubs, with GP practices conveniently located nearby. For green spaces, Hampstead Heath, Kenwood House, Waterlow Park, and Highgate Wood are all nearby, offering acres of open land and woodland walks with exceptional access to nature just moments from the city. Owners’ note: This freehold two-bedroom home on Kenwood Road offers a rare balance of character, comfort, and community, together with the scope for future growth that makes it both immediately rewarding and enduringly valuable. Light-filled interiors, modern upgrades, and the quiet luxury of underfloor heating are complemented by a large, landscaped private rear garden and a thoughtfully designed front approach, with the added potential for a side-return extension and loft conversion (subject to planning permission, STPP). After more than a decade of cherished ownership, the family are moving abroad, opening a rare opportunity to make this much-loved Highgate residence your own—a home where present enjoyment meets long-term promise in one of the area’s most sought-after settings.
