Do you have a question about this home or the local area?
This home places you in the leafy London suburb of Mill Hill. While you’ll benefit from a quieter location, you can be in the city centre within an hour. The house boasts a large garden with a woodland backdrop, alfresco dining area, and studio – the perfect home office or teenage TV den. Head inside and you’ll find an open-plan dining area and separate lounge, readymade for sociable meals or family film nights. When you’re not sightseeing in town, you can explore the nearby nature reserve or enjoy a pint in one of the local pubs. We think this place is ideal for a family wanting a peaceful base from which to explore the capital.
