Freehold mid-terrace townhouse with generous 2,021 sq ft internal area
Set on a quiet Georgian square in the heart of Islington, this substantially renovated mid-terrace house combines handsome period detail with contemporary living over multiple floors. Light pours through tall sash windows and a dramatic winding staircase into generous living spaces, including a large reception room and a lower-ground open-plan area with a skylight and bi-fold doors to the garden.
The principal suite occupies the entire first floor and benefits from large Georgian windows, a south-facing aspect over the square, a dressing room and a sizeable bathroom. Two further bedrooms and a bathroom sit on the upper levels, giving flexible sleeping arrangements for family life or home working. The bespoke kitchen, utility cupboard and thoughtful storage make everyday living straightforward.
Outside, the landscaped, low-maintenance garden is split between raised and lower areas linked by a sympathetic external staircase, offering private outdoor space rare for central locations. Transport links are excellent — Angel and Highbury & Islington stations are both within a short walk — and a strong selection of schools, shops, gyms and cinemas lie close by.
Practical considerations: the property sits on a relatively small plot and the walls are original solid brick with no confirmed insulation. Council tax is noted as very expensive and the local crime rate is above average. These factors are important for budgeting and long-term running costs despite the home’s generous internal proportions and recent renovation.
