6, Hornsey Lane, Highgate, N6 5LZ

Positioned on Highgate Village end of Hornsey Lane, this modernist-inspired former coach house has been thoughtfully converted for contemporary living.

Its façade retains a strong sense of its historic character, subtly updated with dark grey paint that frames the sash windows, original first-floor external door and surrounding glazing.

Planters filled with evergreens sit against the sturdy London stock brick, creating a welcoming entrance.

Inside, the home has been completely reimagined, with the eye immediately drawn through the space to the dramatic mezzanine reception room.

Expansive south-facing glazing floods the living area with natural light, while cleverly defined zones accommodate both relaxation and dining.

Tucked neatly into one corner, a freestanding log burner provides a warm and characterful focal point.

This level also includes a study with an en suite shower room, which could easily serve as an additional bedroom.

Steps, with a rebated handrail, descend to the sleek kitchen below, where streamlined cabinetry conceals integrated appliances.

Colourful floorboards run underfoot and continue to the terrace, which along with the floor-to-ceiling sliding doors provide a seamless connection between indoors and outdoors.

On the first floor lies the olive-hued principal suite at the rear of the home, bathing in abundant natural light throughout the day.

A Jack-and-Jill shower en-suite is shared with a smaller front-facing room.

The main bedroom opens onto a private roof terrace, a rare feature for the area, which is generously sized with space for sun loungers.

Ascending to the top floor, two further bedrooms each enjoy their own shower en-suite. The south-facing terrace wraps around the home, providing access to the exterior store.

A suntrap perfect for entertaining, it is framed by ivy climbers and planting, creating a lush, verdant backdrop.
