North Road, Highgate Village London N6

Prickett & Ellis are proud to present to the market one of Highgate’s rarest and historic gems
Byron House was constructed in the early 1700’s (circa 1720) and was later dressed with an updated Regency façade. This exceptional property is Grade II* listed and was once a highly regarded school ‘Byron House School’ Est 1897. Amongst its esteemed alumni is Sir John Betjeman (plaque on the building), Sir Stephen Hawkin, double Oscar winning actress Elizabeth Taylor and Sir James Lighthill to name but a few. T S Elliot was also a teacher at the school. (Please ask for our historic addendum information sheet)
Due to the unique nature of this exceptional home, we strongly recommend an early internal inspection.
This unique and historic listed family home offers approaching 4,000 sq ft of enchanting period space with some exceptional period features throughout. Byron House is set well back from North Road and is approached via a York stone parking area for up to 4 cars. A screen of well managed and trimmed Ewe Trees leads to the enclosed front garden which has a mature Magnolia tree, which is a delight to behold when in full bloom. This beautiful pathway leads to the striking ionic columned entrance porchway.
The lower ground floor (former staff accommodation) is currently arranged as a self-contained 2 bedroom, 2 reception, kitchen & bathroom apartment with its own private entrance. The apartment is linked to the main house by a single locked door. This separate space could be ideal for live in staff, family dependants, older children and even a potential income source.
