BRICKWORKS SAYS

Nothing has been overlooked in the renovation of this exquisite home. Sensitively decorated to enhance its natural character, each room is considered and satisfying. The extended kitchen, with a double height ceiling and industrial accents of Crittal and exposed brickwork, is the bighearted centre of the house, perfect for modern-day living. Design innovations such as the underfloor heating are a seamless addition, yet the subtle touches, like the butler sink, keep it firmly rooted in its Victorian past.

Every detail has been expertly configured and artfully executed, from sensible storage solutions to the bedroom’s integrated dressing table. The family bathroom enjoys a real sense of opulence – we love it! And the design decision to take out the ceiling and add a skylight in the back bedroom is a clever one, capitalising on space and light.

Kirkstall Avenue is part of a delightful corner of South Tottenham, so close to Downhills Park that you’ll consider it part of your everyday routine. You won’t have to travel far for a caffeine fix (Perkyn’s or With Milk) and a proper pub (The Palm). While in nearby Seven Sisters, you’ll find a riot of international flavours, all set in a vibrant community that people are passionate about.

THE OWNER SAYS

Kirkstall Avenue is part of a lovely neighbourhood of three really quiet roads, which don’t get any through traffic. We’re lucky to also be incredibly close to the lovely Downhills Park, with its cherry blossom in Spring and the friendly neighbourhood café.

Our daughter attends the popular, park-side Dorset Hall nursery, which is just a 3-minute walk away. One of the most special things about the house is that you get views across London, including the Shard and Canary Wharf, from the loft bedroom. It makes for excellent fireworks viewing on bonfire night!

This is everything a local pub should be: craft beers/ales on tap, delicious food and bar snacks, and–to top it off–a brilliant team that runs it. Whenever we just “pop” in, we can’t help but stay for hours. Plus, we can assure you their Sunday Roast is pretty much perfect.

Fuelling our coffee addiction since the day it opened, Perkyn's is one of the best for a coffee hit. A bottle shop, too, fridges filled with beautifully designed craft beers and wine that makes any occasion feel like a real treat.
