Step into a spacious Victorian terraced house on Fonthill Road, arranged over multiple floors and offering five bedrooms and two bathrooms. The property benefits from high ceilings, bay windows, cast-iron fireplaces and a private walled garden with an outhouse — rare for inner-city living this close to Finsbury Park Station (0.1 miles).
The house extends to approximately 1,900 sq ft and is offered freehold and chain free, giving an incoming purchaser straightforward ownership and the freedom to renovate. The lower-ground conversion provides additional living and utility space with direct garden access; double glazing was installed after 2002 and heating is by mains-gas boiler and radiators.
There is significant improvement potential throughout — cosmetic updating and reconfiguration could add value and modern comfort. Note material considerations: the property sits in an area with very high recorded crime and local deprivation indicators, and council tax is described as quite expensive. The building’s solid-brick fabric is assumed to lack insulation, so buyers should budget for potential thermal upgrades.
This home suits a family seeking generous rooms and strong transport links, or an investor/developer who can manage refurbishment. Its location — moments from Stroud Green’s shops and eateries and excellent rail and tube connections — means tasteful modernisation is likely to attract strong demand.
