Highgate is a distinguished and attractive area perched on one of London’s highest hills, offering residents impressive views over the capital. Known for itsleafy streets, historic architecture, and verdant green spaces, Highgate retains a village-like feel
despite its proximity to Central London. Cobblestone lanes, period architecture, and one of London’s most atmospheric cemeteries give it a sense of history and quiet grandeur.
A double-height ark floats above a masonry base & entrance footbridge. Off the elevated living area a smokers' balcony overlooks the lush garden below. Above, semi circular terrace and winter garden nestles within the wooded surrounds.
