An end-of-terrace modern house with both a private garden and splendid communal gardens, situated on this desirable road between Highgate Village and the Tube station. It forms part of the Southwood House Estate, a triangle of residences built in the early 1960s to a design by the architects Andrews, Emerson, Sherlock & Keable. Andrews himself designed this particular house for his own occupation.

Being located on the end of the row, the house has some notable advantages, including very good natural light (it is triple-aspect) and the biggest garden. It also has a off-street parking space at the front.

Internal accommodation measures just under 1,500 sq ft, arranged over three floors with a small sun room at roof level. The ground floor contains an open-plan kitchen and dining room, with sliding doors to the garden. There is a reception room overlooking the garden on the first floor. The house also has three generous double bedrooms, two bathrooms and a study. It has been refurbished to a high standard by the current architect owners, who have updated it while remaining sympathetic to the original fabric of the building.

The Southwood House Estate was created between 1958 and 1962 on the site of the former Southwood House (c1745). The houses on Jacksons Lane were the last to be completed, following those on Hillside Gardens and Southwood Lane. The development was deliberately sited around the grounds of the old house, and these now form a very attractive and sizeable communal space with mature trees, which is for the sole use of residents.

Highgate Village has a wide variety of shops, cafés, pubs and restaurants. The open spaces of Hampstead Heath and Waterlow Park, and the ancient Highgate Wood and Queen’s Wood, are all close at hand. The house is a short walk from Highgate Underground station (Northern Line), and from the stop for the number 43 bus, which runs direct to Moorgate, Bank and London Bridge. There is also a stop for the 134 bus, which serves Camden Town and Tottenham Court Road. There are good local schools in the area, including Highgate School and St Michael’s Primary School.
