KEY FEATURES This imposing, six bedroom family residence is ideally located for both Barnet High Street and Whetstone’s High Road – so you are spoilt for choice of shops, bars and restaurants on your doorstep. Equidistant between High Barnet and Totteridge and Whetstone tube stations and just a 10 minute walk from New Barnet Train Station – commuting into central London is very easy. As you enter the property, you are greeted by the impressive entrance hall, which flows through into the main living and dining rooms; connected by the spacious bar area with feature fireplace. This really is the heart of the home and is perfect for entertaining all year round. There are two sets of glass doors leading out onto the terrace and the outdoor heated pool. The exquisite kitchen features a large central island and beautiful granite worktops. There is ample space in the kitchen for a dining table or breakfast area and a separate utility room and large pantry can be found just across the hall. There is an additional large reception room on the ground floor, which is currently used as a home office and family room, but also lends itself to being a downstairs bedroom suite. There is an additional downstairs WC leading off this room, along with a small hallway area and access to the driveway. This space could easily be converted into a self contained annex.

SELLER INSIGHT For four decades, 83 Lyonsdown has been our home—a brick-built residence from the 1930s that I’ve sympathetically extended twice.” “We were initially captivated by its prime location, nestled across from a charming green space, offering a delightful view. The set-back garden, tranquil and south-facing, features a charming wooden deck and an essential outdoor dining area—a nod to my Greek roots. Perfect for BBQs, it also boasts a pizza oven and an inviting heated swimming pool, making it a genuine haven for entertaining.” “Strategically designing a U-shaped room at the back with a dedicated bar area has made our home perfect for entertaining and hosting parties. The spacious layout allows the house to comfortably accommodate up to one hundred people if needed.” “One notable feature is a purpose-built room on the ground floor with a W.C, boasting a separate entrance—an ideal space for an au pair or an elderly relative. It could be effortlessly converted for independent access if needed – the possibilities for this space are endless.” “The downstairs area, with its spacious design, allows us to comfortably host 12 people around the dining table. The main bedroom is one of my favourite rooms in the house and is generously sized, complete with a jacuzzi bath and a door leading to a balcony which overlooks the rear garden.” “There are numerous highly regarded schools within the area and easy access to the tube for commuting. On the flip side, there’s the allure of the peaceful countryside just a short distance away. The high street is a culinary haven, featuring a variety of restaurants, including one of the oldest pubs in the UK, The Griffin, and other local gems like the Monk and Holt and Duke of York.” “Beyond the physical aspects, what truly makes this place special is the sense of community. We have lovely neighbours, and it’s a real family-oriented area.” “What I shall miss the most is the sunshine bathing the residence throughout the day and the top bedroom, offering breath-taking views over London. It has become especially enchanting during events like the central London New Year’s Eve fireworks, which we enjoy from the window. While I’ve invested my heart and soul in perfecting this house, the time has come to downsize as our family has grown.”*
