Woodside Square

About Woodside Square

Woodside Square sits in the unspoilt heart of leafy Muswell Hill, a village-like community in North London. And, with its commanding views southward, Muswell Hill is one of the capital’s gems.

Sitting on one of the main routes in and out of London, there’s been a settlement in this area for centuries, but it remained largely rural until the turn of the last century. A brief but prolific period of development in the Edwardian era transformed Muswell Hill into a gentrified London suburb.

The resulting buildings followed the contemporary Arts and Crafts style, using high-quality materials and incorporating beautiful design details. The area has retained its period charm, and it remains one of London’s best locations for historical character. In fact, a large part of Muswell Hill is designated as a conservation area.

Special to Woodside Square is its parkland setting, continuing the leafy character of Muswell Hill. Existing mature trees, grassed areas, paving and lighting will all go to create an inviting public realm. As well as providing picturesque surroundings, these green spaces make safe communal areas for social interaction, recreation, picnics and children’s play.

Infrastructure

Community life here is focused around the lively Broadway where thriving independent shops, cafes and restaurants mingle with essential amenities, including banks, travel agents,

a post office and a lovely neighbourhood library, providing a perfectly rounded lifestyle. Further local amenities can be found close by in Highgate.

Set in attractive, tranquil surroundings, Highgate Golf Club is an excellent 18 hole course, which is actually the closest golf course to central London. Tennis lovers are also catered for by several local clubs, including the Muswell Hill Methodist Tennis Club, which is open to everyone. The Stormont Tennis Club offers a discounted membership to esidents of Woodside Square.

Excellent bus services and nearby tube and train stations provide an effective travel hub for commuters or residents heading into central London.

The Northern Line’s Highgate or East Finchley stations will take you into the West End in 15 minutes. And both are around a 15-minute walk from Woodside Square – and they’re even quicker to reach by bus. Another short bus ride will also get you to Bounds Green, Finsbury Park or Wood Green on the Piccadilly Line. For overland train services, head to either Alexandra Palace or Hornsey stations, which will whisk you to Moorgate in about 20 minutes.

Muswell Hill boasts excellent bus support, with direct routes to the City and the West End, day and night; the W7, 43 and 134 are the key local routes bound centrally.

By car

The area also has the advantage of easy car access to the M1 and beyond. From Muswell Hill Road, it’s just a 15 minutes’ drive to the M1, via the A405. Access to the City is just as straighforward – simply take the A1 south.
