HIGHGATE:
Situated on one of London’s highest points, Highgate commands great views over central London and the expansive greenery of Hampstead Heath. Much like neighbouring Hampstead, the High Street is the area’s social hub. Residents cherish this village like atmosphere safe in the knowledge that Leicester Square is only a 20-min. Tube journey away. Despite the area’s exclusive reputation, property styles are varied and cater to a diverse market. Whether you’re seeking a family home for the kids to grow up in, or a studio flat, this prime north London property hotspot has it all.
Eating: One thing Highgate knows how to do is afternoon tea. High Tea of Highgate is a tiny cafe with a huge array of cakes and scones. It’s always busy, but you won’t regret queuing. The High Street has a great selection of independent and chain restaurants. Locals only have to venture slightly further to enjoy the culinary delights of Holloway Road and Junction Road, such as the acclaimed Italian 500 and gastro pub St John’s Tavern.
Culture: Located in a striking Gothic church conversion, the multi arts venue Jacksons
Lane is a hotbed of theatrical activity. Classical music fans should visit The Red Hedgehog, an intimate 100 seat concert hall opposite Highgate Tube. Anyone in need of some light entertainment can head Upstairs at the Gatehouse, Highgate’s excellent fringe theatre. The central Pond Square is home to community events, including the Highgate Summer Fair and Christmas carol concert.
Drinking: Many of Highgate’s social gatherings take place in its traditional-style pubs. The Red Lion & Sun and The Flask are reliable options, but first prize goes to The Wrestlers, a beautiful pub in the heart of the village, occupying the same site since 1547. A real fireplace, vintage wooden furniture and stained glass windows ensure its authenticity while its extensive menu keeps the locals returning.
Local amenities: There are numerous parks and outdoor spaces providing ample opportunity for exercise, but just down the hill Archway Leisure Centre has a pool, sauna and gym.
Highgate High Street is lined with exclusive one off boutiques.
Highgate Library is a community hub, located in a striking Edwardian building. It is supported by a group of residents called Friends of Highgate Library, which organises talks by writers and promotes use of the library.
There’s a strong social scene at Highgate Golf Club, and many of the area’s keen sporty types are members.
The handy Tesco Express on the High Street can satisfy most daily needs, but locals can also call on organic grocery stores or Highgate Butchers. For a big shop, it’s only a short drive to Morrisons or Waitrose on Holloway Road.
Residential parking restrictions are in place from 10am-12pm, meaning visitors can often find somewhere to park for free. The quaint size of the village itself means residents usually walk to the Tube, but there is also a car park with 29 spaces for those who’d prefer to drive.
Green Spaces: Highgate not only has broad swathes of its own woodland, but it is also within walking distance of some of London’s most stunning landscapes. Locals take their pick of Hampstead Heath, Queen’s Wood, Waterlow Park or Highgate Wood. For picturesque walks, the 70 acres of ancient woodland in Highgate Wood is a must.
Music enthusiasts might like to stroll past Kenwood House on Hampstead Heath in the hopes of overhearing rehearsals for the summer concerts. Families often stop off at Waterlow Park, a friendly neighbourhood space given to the public by Sir Sidney Waterlow as a ‘garden for the gardenless’ in 1889.
