Haslebury North in Enfield
Living in Haslebury North
Enfield 024 sits in outer north London, with the kind of character you'd expect from a settled, family-oriented suburb — a mix of terraced and semi-detached houses, local high streets, and greenspace within easy reach. Around three-quarters of residents have access to public greenspace within a short walk, and the nearest open space is barely 200 metres away on average. That puts it well ahead of most inner-London neighbourhoods for day-to-day livability.
On cost, it's noticeably cheaper than the central London zones that dominate the city's rental headlines. A two-bedroom home runs about £1,710 a month, and a one-bed comes in around £1,377. That's broadly in line with outer-borough pricing, and considerably less than you'd pay in Zone 2 or the inner boroughs. The median sale price is just under £430,000 — which means buying is still a stretch, but the rent-to-price ratio is more in line with what you'd expect outside the M25 than within it.
The neighbourhood has a notably young family profile. Over a quarter of residents are under 18 — well above the London average — and households with couples and dependent children make up a meaningful share of the mix. About 47% of homes are owner-occupied, which is relatively high for London, where private renting dominates. Just over 40% are privately rented and around 12% are social housing. That tenure balance gives the area a more stable, rooted feel than many parts of inner London.
For practical purposes, the nearest mainline rail station is roughly 800 metres away — about a 10-minute walk — and gets you into the nearest major employment hub in under 10 minutes by public transport.
