This Grade II listed split-level flat on Milner Square combines generous proportions with period character. High ceilings and large sash-style windows create a bright reception room, while original features and contemporary fittings sit comfortably together. Two double bedrooms and flexible lower-ground rooms give useful living and working space for a variety of buyers.
Outdoor space is a genuine asset: a private patio off the lower floor and access to a large, peaceful communal garden with bike storage. The layout includes a utility area, study nook and built-in storage, making the 962 sq ft feel practical for everyday living. Angel and Upper Street amenities are moments away, with excellent transport links at Angel and Highbury & Islington.
There are important practical points to note. The property is Grade II listed, which may restrict alterations and can complicate maintenance. The flat is leasehold with c.83 years remaining; the current owners are in the process of extending the lease but buyers should confirm the final terms. Service charge is listed around £1,000 (details unknown) and council tax is above average. Solid brick construction likely lacks cavity insulation and the area records above-average crime—both factors to consider for running costs and security.
For first-time buyers seeking character, space and outside areas in central Islington, this home offers a rare combination of period charm and usable modern accommodation. Factor in listing constraints, lease length and service costs when assessing value and future plans.
