Osidge

Osidge sits in north London on the boundary between the boroughs of Barnet and Enfield. The area centres on Osidge Lane and adjacent streets that were laid out after the Osidge House estate was redeveloped for housing in the early 20th century. The street pattern includes a short crescent and a grid of avenues, with small communal greens and pockets of mature trees that mark remnants of the old estate landscaping. Street names such as Osidge Lane and Osidge Gardens keep the estate name in everyday use and help define the local address identity.

Housing in Osidge ranges from semi‑detached interwar homes to later infill terraces, and front gardens and hedges are common along residential streets. Local life is organised around a handful of shops, community groups and nearby schools, and residents tend to use surrounding bus routes for travel across north London. The area feels residential and quietly local, shaped by its estate‑to‑suburb history and by the small fragments of older landscape that remain between the houses.
