“The location certainly impresses, a short walk to the tube in a notably upscale area of North London. While experiences seem inconsistent, some appreciate the mansion's character and garden, alongside attentive on-site staff. For those prioritizing location and space, it presents a viable option, although perhaps with certain expectations tempered.”
