A light filled three-bedroom apartment situated on the top floor (2nd) of this stunning Collins built Arts and Crafts style Grade II listed mansion block featuring a balcony, beautiful communal gardens and stunning verdant views.
This lovely Arts and Crafts flat is on the top floor (2nd floor) and enjoys a particularly light and leafy aspect. The rear of the apartment faces directly South which allows an abundance of sunlight to flood the modern kitchen/dining room and the main bedroom throughout the day. Because The Gables is uniquely positioned between the gardens of the houses in Fortismere Avenue and Leaside Avenue, all the rear windows and the double bedroom in particular have the most amazing leafy views heading up towards Highgate Wood and beyond – even the Shard can be seen in the distance!
In total the apartment comprises Three Bedrooms (Two Doubles and One Single), a good size living room with Original Feature Fireplace, a modern eat-in kitchen with doors leading to balcony and a modern family bathroom with large utility cupboard. The balcony overlooking the stunning communal gardens is a real highlight and there is a wrought iron spiral staircase leading down to the garden, or alternatively you can access the gardens via a side gate entrance.
Features include secondary glazing to all windows (with thermal glazing to rear double bedroom), storage cupboard in the hallway, brick-built storage cupboard in the communal gardens, high ceilings and a long lease of 137 years.
The Gables is superbly positioned being a level walk to Muswell Hill Broadway with its vibrant array of independent shops, cafes, restaurants, and cinema. Tetherdown Primary School and Fortismere Secondary School are close by, as is the Tube station at East Finchley underground (Northern Line). You are spoiled for choice when it comes to green spaces with Highgate and Queens Woods being close by, as are the open spaces of Coldfall Woods, Cherry Tree Woods and Alexandra Park.
