Cosy Double Room Highgate

*NEWLY LISTED - AVAILABLE EARLY LATE OCTOBER 2026. Please read the description fully before messaging. Thanks.*

This is my spare double room on Hornsey Lane, Highgate.

The room is its own very pleasant self-contained space off a communal hall/staircase in a lovely old Edwardian house. You're not with other house or flat mates - so this is ideal for someone who prefers their own space. The room has its own fire-escape/balcony with a couple of chairs and a nice view over very peaceful gardens. There's use of two shared bathrooms in the building, which are never particularly busy (as most of the house is studios/flats with their own bathrooms) and there are two additional loos. Kitchen-wise, this isn't the right place for a serious cook. The room has its own small under the stairs kitchenette on the same hallway which has a sink, small fridge, kettle, toaster, plug-in hotplate and microwave (see image) - all pretty new and in good working order - but no serious, built-in cooking facilities - so no proper oven or hob. There is cupboard under the sink for storage.

The room itself comes nicely furnished with a very comfortable/expensive bed, a desk and chair, various bits of artwork scattered about (which can go if required) and some books on the shelves (which can also go). There's a good size full height corner wardrobe. Because the room is on the non road-side of the building, it's lovely and quiet and there's plenty of fresh air.

The rent includes everything - electricity (assuming you're not starting your own laundry), council tax and access to my broadband (I live in a small studio in the same building). There's a communal washing machine, which again is available almost all of the time, as most of other studios/flats in the building have their own laundry facilities.

This isn't the right space for a couple and a female tenant is preferred.

I welcome your interest if it sounds the right place for you. When making contact, do tell me a little bit about yourself, what you do, how long you'd need somewhere for etc and just make it clear to me that the limited kitchen facilities, lack of living room will not be a problem for you. Listings get lots of responses, so do make sure you respond with that information. And thanks for your interest.
