Homes in Tottenham
Tottenham has extensive Victorian terraces, many modest two-storey houses, alongside large post-war council estates such as Broadwater Farm. The Noel Park area, shared with Wood Green, is a late Victorian estate built by the Artisans', Labourers' and General Dwellings Company.
Tottenham Hale is undergoing major regeneration with new apartment towers near the station and the Lea Valley. The eastern edge is close to the River Lea and reservoirs, and parts are in flood zones. Bruce Grove has some Georgian houses on the High Road, and Tottenham Green has a conservation area. Prices are lower than west Haringey, attracting first-time buyers and investors, and many houses have been converted into flats.
Areas we cover include Tottenham Hale, Bruce Grove, Seven Sisters, Tottenham Green, Northumberland Park.
