Renting in Highgate N6

Highgate Village has become the most exclusive area here. Its attractive centre is well looked after, with many lively cafes, restaurants and charming shops to keep you on your toes. The area also boasts some beautiful Georgian and Victorian homes. The Hampstead Garden Suburb, north of the Heath, was designed by Ebenezer Howard and dates back to the 19th Century. He was famous for creating 'garden cities' and leafy urban enclaves throughout London. 'Millionaires Row' is situated here with its infamous mix of exclusive detached homes which are valued at £1 million plus. Hampstead Lane, which borders the Heath, also exhibits impressive detached homes which have been well-preserved as single family residences. Holly Lodge Estate, which is west of Highgate Cemetery (Karl Marx's resting place) and South of Highgate High Street, is another highly sought after location with its cluster of Tudor style homes. You will also find the area is home to many attractive modern developments and converted period residences.

Together with the village setting, houses and flats to rent in Highgate are close to the green open spaces of Hampstead Heath. Throughout the summer months, Kenwood's famous classical concerts are played within a quaint lakeside setting. There is attractive walks and woodland to explore through Queen's Woods and Highgate Wood. There are also sports facilities and a good cafeteria located in the centre.

If you are moving to the area with children, there are some notable schools. Highgate School in North Road and Channing School for girls are distinguished independent schools. William Ellis is a good state school and the primary schools in the area are also of a high quality.
