Hidden Haven, by Veeve

A leafy, expansive garden; a bookcase with a hidden door; three separate, gorgeous living areas… these are just some of the standouts of this impeccably appointed four-bedroom home in Dartmouth Park. Tasteful and modern, spacious and homely, this house is a true gem in North London.

Walk into this home and be greeted with a lasting first impression: the main living area, comprising both a formal living room and a lounge. The large bay window allows direct sunlight to flood a large sofa and three armchairs in the living room, all differing vibrant colours. Vivid art hangs from the walls, adding to the colourful kaleidoscope. The less formal lounge lies beyond, with a cosy leather sofa facing a TV, a piano and an L-shaped bookcase… that may not be what meets the eye. A hidden door hides within, and beyond that…

Lies the kitchen. Another very spacious area, this room features a large island and ample counter space, finished in matte off-white cabinetry and featuring all the bells and whistles you could possibly ask for. The open-plan space also includes the formal dining table, a beautiful timber piece surrounded by odd-coloured, mismatched chairs that brightens and enlivens the room. Another small living area lies just beyond, illuminated by a gigantic window looking out to the equally huge garden.

Featuring a paved area with outdoor seating and a barbecue, as well as an expansive grassy area with impeccable landscaping, this garden is a perfect place to enjoy a cocktail or play with the kids.

Move upstairs and come to the first bedroom, featuring two single beds and an exercise machine. Next door is the primary bathroom, featuring a bath with overhead shower, a toilet and a wash basin. Then come to the principal bedroom: magnificently lit by the south-facing bay windows, here you’ll find a king-sized bed, a brace of armchairs and some quaint antique décor. The en-suite bathroom is well appointed, with shower, toilet and wash basin. Ascend one more flight of stairs and find two more king-sized bedrooms, sharing another bathroom with a shower, toilet and wash basin.

We Love
The fabulous open-plan kitchen and dining area: exquisitely illuminated by big windows and skylights, expansive and modern, once you’re in you won’t want to leave.

Home Truths:
No smoking, pets or parties. A friendly dog usually lives here. Though the dog will not be present during your stay, and the home is cleaned to an extremely high standard, the property may not be suitable for those with allergies. Pets are welcome on request. Although we always endeavour for accuracy, there may be rare occasions where the listing photography and description do not provide an exact representation of the home’s amenities.
