Highgate West Hill, Highgate Village, London, N6 6LS

An impressive detached building with planning permission for residential use. (full plans available for inspection) The Summit is one of Highgate's finest historic properties located in Highgate Village and on the fringe of the Hampstead Heath and the Bathing Ponds. This striking building is located at the summit of Highgate West Hill and rubs shoulders with what’s believed to be London’s second largest private residence after Buckingham Palace, Witanhurst.

The Summit is the original site of the “The Old Fox & Crown” a highly popular local Inn which offered respite for weary travellers. In 1837 (a year before her coronation) one of those weary travellers was a young Princess Victoria. Victoria was taking a break from her journey to Buckingham Palace when the horses on her carriage bolted and galloped down Highgate West Hill with the young Queen on board. Without hesitation the Landlord James Turner jumped on his horse and galloped down the hill after the carriage and managed to bring it to a halt saving Queen Victoria’s life. The Old Fox & Crown and it’s landlord were presented with a royal warrant for his bravery. The original warrant was donated to the Highgate Literary & Scientific Institution where it can be seen today.

NB There are up to 9 parking spaces at the building which could be repurposed to garden/patio area.

The Summit is currently a multi practice health clinic providing a broad spectrum of services. Please note that planning permission has been granted for Residential use.
