Southgate's Grade II* listed art-deco station anchors one of North London's most pleasant suburbs, a market of 1930s semis, Edwardian villas near Grovelands Park and modern flats around the station circus. Demand is consistently strong from families targeting the area's schools and green space.
We complete transactions in Southgate throughout the year, working with Enfield Council on searches and advising on everything from listed-curtilage questions near the station to lease reviews in the newer blocks on Chase Side.
