A rare Georgian townhouse in the Duncan Terrace & Colebrooke Row Conservation Area, this Grade II listed freehold extends to just over 2,000 sq ft across multiple levels. The house has been sensitively renovated to retain period detail — tall sash windows, original shutters, mouldings and a working fireplace — while introducing contemporary conveniences and high-quality finishes throughout. The result is an elegant balance of character and modern living for a family or professional household.
The raised ground floor features a 27-foot double reception with abundant natural light and timber flooring. At garden level a rear extension opens into a bright kitchen-dining area with bespoke joinery and glazed doors onto a private 20-foot courtyard garden. Practical additions include a utility room and two under-pavement vaults that provide useful storage in a central location.
Upper floors offer four generous bedrooms, two bathrooms and a dedicated dressing area, with considered restorations and good ceiling heights throughout. Transport and amenities are excellent: Angel Underground is five minutes' walk and Kings Cross and Highbury & Islington are close by. Local independent cafés, restaurants and green spaces add village-like appeal within the capital.
Important considerations: the property’s Grade II listing and conservation-area location mean alterations will be restricted and may require specialist consent. The plot is compact and the courtyard garden is modest in size. The surrounding area is lively and varied — generally safe with average crime levels, but with some indicators of local deprivation to be aware of when assessing community investment plans.
