The house was the subject of a sympathetic refurbishmentby the current owners, who have opened up the groundfloor, rewired and replumbed, and added under-floorheating throughout. New double-glazed windows have beenadded, with timber frames in keeping with the originals. Inthe reception room on the first floor, they filled in whatwas previously a balcony, retained the original timbersliding window frames and added a glass Juliet balcony. Theelegant original timber open-tread staircase has beenretained.
There is a front garden with off-street parking for two cars.At the rear is a private garden with brick paving anddecking, which, in turn, leads onto the communal gardens.The house has leafy views on both sides.
The Southwood House Estate was developed between1958 and 1962 on the site of the former Southwood House(c1745), which had become derelict and subsequentlyburned down. The houses on Jacksons Lane were the lastto be completed, following those on Hillside Gardens andSouthwood Lane. The development was deliberately sitedaround the grounds of the old house, and these now form avery attractive and sizeable communal space with splendidmature trees, which is for the sole use of residents. It isparticularly popular with families, whose children can runaround in a safe and peaceful environment.
Highgate Village has a wide variety of shops, cafés, pubs andrestaurants. The open spaces of Hampstead Heath andWaterlow Park, and the ancient Highgate Wood andQueen’s Wood, are all close at hand. The house is a shortwalk from Highgate Underground station (Northern Line),and from the stop for the number 43 bus, which runs directto Moorgate, Bank and London Bridge. There is also a stopfor the 134 bus, which serves Camden Town andTottenham Court Road. There are excellent schools in thearea, including Highgate School, St Michael’s Primary Schooland Channing.
