这栋独特的带有大型私人花园的四居室住宅坐落于伦敦一条名为Highlands的小巷子里，距离Crouch End商业区仅几步之遥。住宅始建于20世纪80年代，后由建筑公司DHaus进行了扩建，并由Darkroom事务所进行了室内设计。住宅周边交通便利，除了靠近伦敦轻轨Crouch Hill站外，还设有一条从芬斯伯里公园起始到维多利亚与皮卡迪车站的短途公交线路。

Tucked away on Highlands Close, a short walk from Crouch End village, is this unique four-bedroom house with large private garden. Originally built in the 1980s, it has been the subject of a recent extension by DHaus. The house is close to Crouch Hill station (London Overground), and a short bus ride from Finsbury Park tube station for Victoria and Piccadilly line services citywide.

Highlands巷位于Crouch山顶，毗邻风景秀丽的帕克兰步道，居住环境舒适安静。FUN住宅则位于小巷排屋的尽头，由颇具伦敦特色的红砖砌筑而成。房屋的前部是一小块维护良好的公共区域，这块区域被凸起的砖砌花池明确地定义了出来。

Highlands Close is a quiet group of houses set towards the top of Crouch Hill, running adjacent to the scenic Parkland Walk. The house is positioned at the end of its terrace and is formed of London brick stock, set back behind a well-maintained communal area with raised brick planters.

住宅由部分架高的底层进入。在室内，空间的比例被打开，自然光线透过厨房的天窗和一组通往后花园的大型折叠门照射到房间的深处。开敞通透的厨房与客厅构成了住宅的核心区域，厨房和客厅的地面保留了DHaus设计的生石地板以及能给人们带来舒适赤脚体验的松木地板。

Access is gained via a partially raised ground floor. Inside, the proportions have been opened up and natural light encouraged deep into the plan, via skylights in the kitchen and a large set of folding doors which open onto a garden at the rear. These areas form the heart of the house, encompassing the DHaus-designed kitchen with raw stone floors and a large living room with pine floorboards underfoot.
