Description
IN BRIEF
Tucked away in a tree-lined street just moments from Green Lanes, this unusually spacious two bedroom, two bathroom apartment is conveniently located for access to the shops, stations, parks and amenities in both Bowes Park and Palmers Green.
PROPERTY DESCRIPTION
Located on the second (top) floor of a charming mews terrace, the apartment is a huge 1,056 square feet, including a large open plan main living space. Built into the mansard roof, with all-white walls, wood flooring, an exposed brick wall, downlighters, and school-style radiators.
From the moment you enter the apartment there’s a great sense of space and lateral living, with a line of sight of over 50 ft from the wide hallway through to the large open plan main living space. This delightfully airy room, with good natural light from five windows, comprises a 22’4” by 20’ living room and a 19’ by 5’7” kitchen, connected by a wide, open doorway. There’s lots of space for sofas and a large dining table, and the smart monochrome kitchen is well equipped, with fitted wall and floor cabinets that house a combination of integrated and freestanding appliances.
The predominantly white and wood décor continues into the bedrooms, creating a calm coherence. The main bedroom has a wide window and, at over 12 ft square, plenty of space for a kingsize bed, workspace, and bedroom furniture. It also has an en suite shower room. The second bedroom is also a double, and the adjacent main bathroom is fully tiled and has a bath, washbasin, and WC.
The apartment offers a rare opportunity in this area for modern, loft-living. The living space is much larger than most two bedroom apartments, and the layout and décor maximise the space and natural light to create a lovely place to call home.
LOCAL LIFE
The property is in within easy walking distance of the many amenities of Green Lanes, the independent cafes, bars, and shops along Myddleton Road, Bowes Park’s vibrant award-winning High Street, and the centre of Palmers Green. Wood Green shopping centre is just over a mile away; 8-9 minutes by bike or bus.
Transport links are good. The train stations at Bowes Park (a 14 minute walk) and Palmers Green (17 min walk, 5 min bus journey) have fast, direct journeys to the City (Moorgate c.25 min). Alternatively, you can change onto the Victoria Line at Highbury & Islington or hop on the Piccadilly Line at Bounds Green or Wood Green, both approximately a mile away.
There are several popular parks and recreation grounds nearby, including Broomfield Park with its open green space, gardens, playground, conservatory, and café.
