Property description
Located in one of N19's most desirable pockets, just a short walk from the Parliament Hill entrance to Hampstead Heath and the vibrant cafés of Swains Lane, this unfurnished duplex offers generous living space, a private balcony and a lower courtyard accessed from both bedrooms. Heating and hot water are included (approximately £80-£100 per month), and the rental price reflects this. Available from 11th May.
The spacious living room, adorned with large floor-to-ceiling windows, invites ample natural light, creating a bright and airy atmosphere. The open-plan layout seamlessly connects the living and dining areas, perfect for entertaining guests or enjoying quiet evenings.
The adjoining dining area seamlessly transitions into a modern kitchen, complete with sleek cabinetry, ample counter space, and integrated appliances, providing a functional and stylish cooking environment.
On the lower ground floor, the primary bedroom is a comfortable double room with direct access to the private patio courtyard. The room is well-sized and neutrally finished, with space for freestanding furniture. Glazed doors open onto the patio, allowing for natural light and a sense of connection to the outside space.
The second bedroom is also a double room and similarly benefits from direct access to the lower patio. This flexibility makes it suitable as a guest room, workspace or additional sleeping accommodation while maintaining access to outdoor space from both bedrooms.
The bathroom is finished with dark tiling and includes a bath with overhead shower, wash basin and WC. Mirrored storage above the basin enhances practicality while maintaining a clean, modern aesthetic.
One of the standout features of this property is its private balcony, an extension of the living area that provides a peaceful retreat. This outdoor space is perfect for entertaining, gardening, or simply enjoying the fresh air in the heart of the city.
Externally, the property benefits from a well-maintained communal garden, offering a green oasis for residents. The exterior of the building presents a modern aesthetic, blending seamlessly with the surrounding architecture of Retcar Place.
The property is exceptionally well positioned for access to Hampstead Heath, with the Parliament Hill entrance on Swains Lane approximately a seven-minute walk away, without the need for public transport. The Heath offers extensive open green space, walking trails and elevated views across London. Residents can also take a leisurely stroll to nearby Waterlow Park, a picturesque green. The local area boasts the delightful Lauderdale House, which hosts various events and exhibitions.
Swains Lane itself is a highly desirable stretch, known for its independent cafés, Gail's Bakery, traditional pubs, bars and specialist food shops, including a fishmonger and butcher. The area offers a village-like atmosphere and a flat walk to nearby amenities, widely regarded as one of the most attractive local high streets in the area. The bustling streets of Archway and Highgate Village offer a mix of charming cafes, independent shops, and dining options, ensuring that there is always something to explore and enjoy.
Archway Underground Station, served by the Northern Line, is just a short walk away, providing swift access to central London and the City. Numerous bus routes are available from nearby stops, offering convenient travel to various parts of the capital. For those who prefer cycling, well-maintained bike lanes and routes make commuting by bicycle a viable option. The area is also well-connected by road, with easy access to major thoroughfares such as the A1, making car travel straightforward.
