Colindale

Just 8 miles northwest of Charing Cross makes Colindale a tempting place to set up home. Far less expensive than living in the City of London house sales are popular in this small town located in the London Borough of Barnet. With a number of North London’s largest institutes, including the Bristish Library Newspapers depository and Royal Air Force Museum, Colindale has much to offer. Before the 20th century property for sale in Colindale was in short supply, there was just one house, one farm and a couple of cottages!
