From the Agent: "Positioned within one of Highgate’s most notable modernist buildings, this split-level studio apartment has been carefully renovated by the current owner. It was designed by Robert Maxwell for Douglas Stephen & Partners in 1965. Wonderful original features have been preserved, including full-height sliding doors that open to a south-facing balcony, and sensitive contemporary additions introduced. Behind Southwood Park lie expansive communal gardens, which are home to mature trees, beautifully planted borders and a heated residents’ swimming pool."
Surrounded by mature trees and flowering shrubbery, the modernist apartment building offers a peaceful city escape. An array of large green spaces, including Hampstead Heath and Waterlow Park, are located just a short walk away.
The main living spaces can be found on the lower level. Wood-framed glass doors open onto the south-facing balcony, which overlooks expansive communal gardens.
The L-shaped kitchen was recently updated by the current owner and now features all-new appliances, white cabinetry, and Silestone worktops.
The spiral staircase ascends to the light-filled mezzanine level, which hosts the bedroom.
Residents can also access the heated swimming pool located near the rear gardens.
