Behind its white stucco façade, the house offers over 3,000 sq ft of well-balanced accommodation, where natural light and thoughtful planning shape each space. Most of the first floor is given over to an elegant drawing room, a generous and composed space with tall sash windows and refined proportions. It is a room that feels both formal and liveable. Behind lies a quiet study. The ground floor is more relaxed. A bespoke kitchen sits alongside a dining room, with an additional sitting area that opens directly onto the private south-facing patio garden. This connection to the outside gives the house a softer edge, particularly in warmer months when the doors are left open and the garden becomes part of the living space.

It includes a dressing room and ensuite bathroom, arranged with a straightforward, functional logic. Further bedrooms are distributed across the upper floors, offering flexibility for family life, guests or working from home. A bedroom and an additional reception room on the lower ground floor provide further versatility, whether as a gym, bedroom or staff accommodation. Throughout, the house is presented with thoughtful interior design, with a consistent palette that allows the proportions and natural light to take precedence.

Set back from Hadley Green Road behind wrought-iron gates, The Grove unfolds at the end of a long carriage driveway. Its late Georgian façade sits comfortably within rolling lawns and open countryside beyond, the elevation giving way to wide, uninterrupted views. Built around 1800 and Grade II listed, the house has been carefully extended over time, now offering close to 11,000 sq ft of accommodation. Its proportions remain firmly rooted in its period, with high ceilings, generous room widths and a natural sense of flow between spaces. At its centre is a striking entrance hall, lined in pine panelling and anchored by a sweeping staircase. From here, the principal reception rooms extend out across the ground floor. A series of formal and informal spaces include a grand drawing room, a dining room of impressive scale, and a richly panelled library, alongside additional reception rooms that lend themselves to more private use. Many retain original detailing, from delicate plasterwork to classical friezes, while large sash windows draw in light and frame views of the surrounding grounds. At the North corner of the house, a generous kitchen and breakfast room are complemented by a conservatory. The kitchen itself is expansive and contemporary in feel, with a central island and ample space for dining, positioned to overlook the gardens. Upstairs lie eleven bedrooms in total, most with their own bathrooms. The scale allows for a variety of uses, from family living to guest accommodation, with several rooms enjoying particularly fine outlooks across the grounds. The lower ground floor is given over to leisure and utility space, including a gym, cinema room and sauna, alongside storage and plant rooms. Outbuildings are equally well considered. The former coach house has been converted to provide garaging for four cars, with two self-contained flats above, perfect for staff or guests. A separate double garage sits elsewhere on the grounds. The setting is one of the house’s defining qualities. Extending to approximately 17 acres, the grounds move between open lawns, mature woodland and more formal planting, including a rhododendron garden and an avenue of lime trees. A terrace runs along the rear of the house, positioned to take in the elevated views, while a floodlit tennis court and ornamental pond add to the sense of a fully formed country estate. There is also potential, subject to planning, to create further leisure space beneath the terrace. Monken Hadley has long held onto its identity as a village, despite sitting just beyond North London. Centred around the green and its cricket field, it retains a distinctly rural feel, with open land rolling into Hadley Woods and the wider countryside beyond. There is a quiet sense of history here too, shaped by its position on the edge of London rather than within it. Despite that, connections into central London are straightforward, making it a place that offers space, landscape and a slower pace of life without complete separation from the city.
