Carlingford Road, London, N15 3EU

A well-proportioned one bedroom ground floor flat, approached through its own front door and arranged with each room leading separately from the hallway. The bright reception room has high ceilings and a broad bay window, while the separate fitted kitchen has space for a small dining area and French doors opening directly onto the shared rear garden.

The double bedroom is set at the rear of the flat. A modern bathroom includes a heated towel rail, and further features include double glazing, a modern boiler, some recently replaced radiators and useful storage cupboards.

Carlingford Road is just off West Green Road. On Vicarage Parade, Perkyn’s does coffee and has a bottle shop, with Yard Sale Pizza a few doors along. Nearby, independent greengrocer Seasonal Greens N15 is preparing to open a café and artisan bakery. Further along towards Seven Sisters, Pasero is a deli and café by day and a neighbourhood restaurant in the evening.

Head towards Green Lanes for Turkish bakeries and grills, a loaf from The Dusty Knuckle or a pint at The Salisbury, with its Victorian mosaic floors and stained glass. Forks & Green on Philip Lane is another local option for a weekend brunch.

Ducketts Common is close by for its basketball courts and open lawns. Downhills Park has a rose garden, tennis courts and a café, and for a longer walk you can carry on into Lordship Rec and follow the path past the wildlife lake.

Turnpike Lane is a short walk away, with the Piccadilly line running directly to King’s Cross, Holborn and Covent Garden. Hornsey station is also within reach for trains to Moorgate.
