Our Home For Exchange

Description of the home we are offering for exchange

Modernised but retaining lots of character with a pretty courtyard garden and sunny garden room. Set in a leafy conservation area yet with easy access to central London and the motorway network. We have lived here for almost 40 years, the area is quiet, safe and friendly. Now we are retired we'd like to do some travelling. We've exchanged before, many years ago, and loved it. Those who have stayed in our home loved it too. You may also like to stay in our apartment in Southern Spain (see separate listing).

Neighbourhood

Description of our neighbourhood and surrounding area

Our house is set in a private conservation area with grass verges and pretty front gardens. The Rookfield Garden Village was constructed approximately 100 years ago by a well know local family and the 4 roads which make up the area are delightfully harmonious. Local shops in Muswell Hill provide plenty of variety and the Farmers Market, held on Sundays, has won many awards. Highgate Underground is a pleasant walk through local woods or nearby buses link directly to central London. Mainline Train Stations can all be reached through the Underground system opening up the possibility of visits to many well know tourist destinations, including Bath, Oxford & Cambridge. You'll need plenty of time to enjoy all that London and the surrounding countryside have to offer.

Attractions

Our home exchange - places to go and things to do while staying in our home

A short walk from our house you will find Alexandra Palace and Park, where the first public TV transmissions were made and lovely woods leading to Hampstead Heath and Kenwood House. Hampstead and Highgate villages provide a wide variety of pubs, restaurants and boutique shopping.

Our Preferences

Our home exchange - here are our Preferences and House Rules

We have a delightful home and hope that you will enjoy staying with us. We are a non-smoking household and trust you will respect all the lovely things you will find. We recycle as much as possible and there is a weekly refuse collection. Our house is protected by an electronic alarm (it's a good deterrent - we've never been burgled in the 40 years we've been here!) Our cleaner comes twice a week on Tuesday and Friday mornings and could continue to do so. We love children and have 4 grandchildren living close by but the house is really only set-up for adults - when our children left home we colonised the whole house creating a garden room, dressing room and study along with 2 double bedrooms.
