Letting in Haringey: selective licensing to November 2027
Haringey’s selective licensing scheme came into force on 17 November 2022 and ceases on 17 November 2027 unless the council revokes it earlier. It covers privately rented homes let to one person, two people or a single household in these wards: Bounds Green, Bruce Castle, Harringay, Hermitage & Gardens, Noel Park, Northumberland Park, Seven Sisters, South Tottenham, St Ann’s, Tottenham Central, Tottenham Hale, West Green, White Hart Lane and Woodside. Its additional HMO scheme covers every HMO in the borough, including section 257 HMOs.
The standard selective fee is £705.84 for the five-year scheme: £411.57 on application and £294.27 once the application is approved. The council takes £50 off Part B for an EPC rating of C or above and another £50 for an accredited landlord, and the discounts can be combined. Owners of three or more rented flats in one block get £75 off Part A for the second and later flats.
Every selective application needs an EPC. Haringey says an application without a valid EPC has its licence cut to one year, and its table of reasons for shortening a licence lists a failed EPC, worth a reduction of up to four years. The application also asks for an electrical installation condition report and, where there is gas, a gas safety certificate.

Homes in Haringey
Why homes in Haringey rate as they do
Haringey is split by the railway and the hill. Hornsey, Crouch End, Muswell Hill and Highgate have large Victorian and Edwardian houses and flats, Wood Green and Harringay have long terraces, and Tottenham has the planned estates and high road buildings its conservation areas protect, with newer blocks around Tottenham Hale.
The Noel Park, Tower Gardens and Peabody Cottages estates are covered below. For a house on one of them the front is controlled, but the loft, floor and boiler are not. For a converted flat in Stroud Green or Crouch End, the roof above and the heating in the flat itself carry more of the rating.
25.6% of Haringey’s certificates are for homes built between 1930 and 1966, against 32.9% across London, and 16.1% record insulated cavity walls, against 24.4%. Flats and maisonettes are 70.0% of the total, and private lettings 43.0%, against 35.5%.
| Recorded on the certificate | Haringey | London |
|---|---|---|
| Built before 1930 | 47.9% | 31.3% |
| Solid walls, no added insulation | 63.9% | 48.1% |
| Cavity walls, insulated | 16.1% | 24.4% |
| Mains gas boiler | 78.3% | 76.2% |
| Communal heating | 9.8% | 10.8% |
| Electric heating | 11.1% | 12.2% |
On 89.9% of the certificates rated D or lower, the potential rating (every recommendation carried out) is C or better.

Conservation areas and Article 4 in Haringey
Haringey’s list of conservation areas includes Alexandra Palace and Park, Bowes Park, Bruce Castle and All Hallows, Clyde Circus, Crouch End, Highgate, Muswell Hill, Noel Park, Peabody Cottages, Rookfield, St Ann’s and Stroud Green, and the five areas of the Tottenham High Road Historic Corridor: North Tottenham, Scotland Green, Bruce Grove, Tottenham Green and Seven Sisters/Page Green.
The council currently uses Article 4 directions in four of them: Noel Park, Peabody Cottages, Rookfield Estate and Tower Gardens. Its page says they restrict permitted development rights such as alterations to windows and doors. New directions for Noel Park, Peabody Cottages and Tower Gardens took effect on 21 December 2020, and the council chose not to confirm a new direction for Rookfield Estate, so the existing one stays in effect.
A separate Article 4 direction removes permitted development rights to convert a house (C3) into an HMO (C4) across most of the east of the borough. The council says a licence does not give planning approval.

Noel Park, Tower Gardens and Peabody Cottages
Noel Park in Wood Green is a planned estate of approximately 2000 terraced properties, developed by the Artizans, Labourers and General Dwellings Company from around 1881 to 1913. Its appraisal says the windows throughout are double-hung wooden sashes.
The management plan says the thermal performance of sash windows can be improved with draught excluders and discreet secondary glazing, and that replacement windows should be wooden sashes matching the original. It says roof insulation will usually be possible, external wall insulation should not be used on the solid brick walls, and solar panels on facades or roof slopes visible from the street are not appropriate.
Tower Gardens was built by the London County Council at the start of the 20th century, and when construction stopped in spring 1915, 963 homes had been built on about 40 acres. The Peabody Cottages estate was completed in 1907 and, the appraisal says, is the only Peabody estate made up entirely of cottages.

Questions
EPC questions for Haringey
Does my Haringey rental need a selective licence?
If it is let to one person, two people or a single household in one of the selective wards, which run alphabetically from Bounds Green to Woodside, yes. The scheme runs from 17 November 2022 to 17 November 2027. A shared house comes under the additional HMO scheme instead.
Does a good EPC lower the Haringey licence fee?
Yes. Haringey takes £50 off the second payment, Part B, for an EPC rating of C or above, and another £50 for an accredited landlord. The standard fee is £705.84 before discounts.
What if my Haringey licence application has no valid EPC?
Haringey says an application without a valid EPC has its licence reduced to one year. Every selective application needs to be supported by an EPC, so a current certificate comes first.
Can I replace the windows of a Noel Park house?
Noel Park has an Article 4 direction, so alterations to windows and doors on the front need planning permission. The estate’s management plan asks for wooden sashes matching the original and suggests draught excluders and secondary glazing.
Which Haringey postcodes rate lowest?
Of the districts with enough certificates to compare, N10 has the lowest share rated A to C at 49.5%, from 1,851 certificates, and N15 the highest at 65.6%. The table above has every district.
