A controversial home in Townsend Yard, Highgate, has been listed for sale at £1.6 million. Built after Haringey Council approved planning for seven luxury houses in November 2020, the development faced opposition from local factions concerned about its impact on historic buildings in the area. Campaigners have criticized the planning decisions, calling them the 'worst' while highlighting violations of construction conditions. Despite this, the new homes boast various amenities and proximity to local attractions, appealing to potential buyers despite ongoing community dissent.
Civic group the Highgate Society labeled the approval for the seven luxury homes by Haringey Council as 'one of the worst decisions' impacting the historic Highgate bowl.
Concerns were raised by the London Fire Brigade about inadequate access to Shepherds Cottage, which campaigners warned was a 'tinderbox' due to the ongoing construction.
