Location
Shepherds Hill occupies one of the finest positions in Highgate, sitting equidistant between Highgate Village and Crouch End Broadway, each just half a mile away. This is genuine dual-village living: the independent shops, cafes and restaurants of Crouch End on one side, the historic charm and green expanses of Highgate Village on the other, with Muswell Hill Broadway also within comfortable reach. Highgate Underground station is a level 12-minute walk, and bus services run from virtually outside the front door.
The House
Hill Gate Walk is a small, private gated mews tucked quietly off Shepherds Hill - secure, discreet and remarkably peaceful given its position. Number 3 is a freehold contemporary house built in the early 1990s, arranged over three well-proportioned floors and offering 1,582 sq ft of generous living space.
As a freehold property with a nominal service charge (principally for the private driveway & electronic gates) and covered off-street parking included, the ongoing costs of ownership are notably low for a contemporary home of this quality and location. The garden level provides a striking open-plan kitchen/dining room (17'6 x 14'7) with direct access to the rear garden, a further bedroom (17'7 x 9'3), a utility room and a bathroom. The entrance level above houses one of the three bedrooms, including one with en suite, together with a walk-in cloakroom and a generous entrance hall. The entire top floor is given over to the principal bedroom (16'6 x 11'2) and the exceptional 18' x 18' roof terrace. The rear garden extends to approximately 32 feet - generous for this location - and is a private, established space with mature planting and direct access from the kitchen/dining room. A covered off-street parking space is included.
Schools, Sport & the Outdoors
For families, the location is outstanding. Ashmount Primary and Rokesly Junior School are both within easy walking distance, as are several well-regarded nurseries. Highgate School is close by, with Channing and St Michael's also in the immediate catchment. Highgate Cricket Club and the Park Road tennis courts are on the doorstep. Queens Wood and Highgate Wood together provide over 100 acres of ancient woodland for walks, running and play. Jacksons Lane Arts Centre is 700 yards away. Hampstead Heath is 1.2 miles to the south.
