Student lets and shared houses

Middlesex University’s Hendon campus brings a steady demand for shared lets, and a shared house with three or more tenants from different households is an HMO. HMOs are covered by the same electrical safety regulations as any let, and licensed ones carry extra conditions on the installation, appliances and smoke alarms.

Barnet consulted in 2026 on selective licensing for ten wards, including Hendon and West Hendon, which would bring every private let in those wards into licensing. Check the council’s current position before your next tenancy.

Homes from the Northern line boom

Hendon Central station opened in 1923 as the Northern line pushed north, and building raced ahead of it: 687 houses had been built by that year, with plans for 1,500 more approved. Later, the old Hendon aerodrome, which closed to flying in 1968, became the RAF Museum, Hendon Police College and new housing. So Hendon mixes houses from the 1920s with much newer homes, and the inspection each needs is different.
