Living in Finchley Central
Finchley Central takes its name from the Northern line station at its centre, and the streets around it are a genuine mix — purpose-built mansion blocks and 1930s flats close to the station, wider Edwardian terraces as you move further out. Ballards Lane runs through the middle with a steady run of cafés, restaurants and independent shops.
Well connected and often more approachable on price than its neighbours, it tends to suit first-time buyers and tenants who want a short, direct commute.
