235 HERMITAGE ROAD

Flooded with light from all angles, this three-bedroom house in Green Lanes has been lovingly renovated to accentuate its intrinsic charm.

Brickworks Says - Set on a vibrant residential road, this beautiful yet functional Victorian home has three double bedrooms, a large bathroom, and a separate WC downstairs. The owners have carefully remodelled the interior and exterior, with an extension and skylights that give each room purpose and luminescence.

Bifold doors lead from the kitchen – with an enlarged island just right for busy breakfast times – onto a curated garden with decking and in-built planters. The newly fitted bathroom and kitchen are neutral in tone, while each of the bedrooms makes a statement with the rich use of colour.

Hermitage Road offers something for urbanites and nature lovers alike. Finsbury Park and the Woodberry Wetlands are a short walk away, as is the delightful yet little-known New River Path which connects the two. For a city fix, Green Lanes' mix of restaurants and shops is within easy reach. Multiple tube and rail stations are within walking distance, and you can be in central London within half an hour by bicycle.

The Owners Say - We lived happily in this house for six years, and, over the years, we have turned it into an ideal family home. The kitchen and garden are the heart of the house; light-filled and the site of many joyful gatherings.

The neighbourhood has a great combination of city, nature and community. We have loved the shops, cafes and restaurants on Green Lanes, the green spaces of Finsbury Park and Chestnuts Park, and sailing and swimming in the reservoir. Plus, easy access via tube and overground to all that London has to offer.
