High Barnet EN5 sits high on a hill with views back to London. It is an ancient settlement with a Conservation Area containing Georgian cottages, Victorian villas, and almshouses. It has a distinct character from the sprawling suburbs below.
Georgian Cottage Restoration
The smaller Georgian and early Victorian cottages in Wood Street and surrounding lanes are gems. Decorating them involves preserving their modest scale. We avoid brilliant whites, which can look too harsh and modern, opting instead for soft off-whites and historical colours that sit comfortably with the aged brick and timber of the structures.
Sash Window Repair
The wind on Barnet Hill can be strong! We pay particular attention to the draft-proofing of sash windows when decorating here. Installing a discreet brush pile system into the staff and parting beads stops the rattles and drafts, making these historic homes warm and comfortable without replacing the original windows.
