Crouch End and Hornsey are two of North London's most popular and characterful residential areas, known for their independent shops, strong community feel and outstanding Victorian and Edwardian housing stock. Both areas sit in the N8 postcode — with Crouch End centred on The Broadway and Hornsey spread across the lower slopes towards Wood Green and Harringay. The concentration of large Victorian terraced and semi-detached houses across both areas makes them excellent for house extensions. LCCL Construction delivers house extensions across Crouch End, Hornsey and all surrounding North London areas as part of our complete design and build service.
House Extensions Crouch End and Hornsey: Best Types for Local Properties
Crouch End and Hornsey's Victorian terraced houses are ideally suited to side return extensions, rear extensions and wraparound extensions. Many properties in both areas have a back addition alongside the rear — making the wraparound extension an outstanding option for creating a wide open plan ground floor. The larger Edwardian semi-detached houses suit double storey rear extensions. Property values across Crouch End in particular have risen significantly over the past decade, making house extensions an increasingly strong investment.
