Set across two levels, this exceptionally large 1,464 sq ft duplex penthouse offers bright, modern living in central Islington. Two double bedrooms and three bathrooms suit a couple or professionals who need generous entertaining space — the 27'7 reception and 26'11 roof terrace deliver flexible living and impressive views. The open-plan kitchen and floor-to-ceiling windows maximise light and circulation throughout the principal living areas.
Practical points strengthen the purchase: the property is chain free, comes with lift access, off-street parking and a very long share of freehold lease (994 years). Local transport is strong with Angel and Highbury & Islington stations within walking distance, and a wide range of shops, cafés and schools nearby, including several rated Good or Outstanding.
Buyers should note the above-average service charge (£6,900 per year) and the wider neighbourhood indicators: very high local crime levels and an area classified as deprived. Broadband speeds are average. These factors are important for buyers to weigh against the flat’s size, location and long lease when considering value and running costs.
