Set over ground and lower-ground floors of a converted Victorian terrace, this spacious two-bedroom garden maisonette combines period proportions with contemporary fittings. High ceilings, large Crittall-style windows and exposed brick chimney breasts give the reception and kitchen generous natural light and strong visual character. The ground floor entrance and west-facing kitchen/diner (with Juliet balcony) create sociable living space, while a mezzanine study adds versatile sleeping or workspace.
Both double bedrooms are on the lower ground floor and open directly onto a landscaped garden, with the principal bedroom enjoying an en-suite with a freestanding bath. A separate shower room and a utility/storage area complete the accommodation. The property sits in a highly desirable Islington location with excellent transport links (Canonbury Overground, Highbury & Islington, Angel nearby) and easy access to local parks, shops and schools.
Practical points to note: the building is pre-1900 with solid brick walls (no retrofit insulation assumed), and lower-ground sleeping accommodation may feel darker or cooler than the ground floor. Share of freehold and an exceptionally long lease (c. 959 years) are strong tenure positives. This layout will suit buyers seeking generous lateral space and character who are comfortable with Victorian construction and potential insulation or refurbishment work to modernise thermal performance.
For families or buyers wanting planted outdoor space close to central London, the private garden and flexible study/mezzanine offer useful adaptability. The property’s size (c. 1,250 sq ft) and characterful interior make it a rare combination in N5 — good for anyone prioritising space, light and a direct garden connection within an inner-city setting.
