Spacious Georgian home with separate lower‑ground flat and roof terrace.
Nearly 2,300 sq ft across five storeys
A generously proportioned five‑storey townhouse in Barnsbury, recently refurbished to marry Georgian proportions with contemporary fittings. High ceilings, large sash and Crittall‑style windows create bright, airy principal rooms ideal for family living and entertaining. The bespoke kitchen and full‑depth dining room open to a landscaped rear garden, while a private roof terrace adds an extra outdoor retreat.
The second floor principal suite includes extensive built‑in storage and an en‑suite bathroom; an additional top‑floor bedroom and shower room suit guests or older children. The lower ground floor contains a self‑contained one‑bed flat with separate access — practical as an au pair or rental income stream, but requiring management if let.
Practical points are clear and factual: the property is freehold, newly renovated, gas‑fired central heating with modern boiler, double glazing installed post‑2002, and fast broadband/mobile reception. The plot is small and the mid‑terrace form means outdoor space is limited. Council tax is noted as being quite expensive and the building’s original solid brick walls are assumed uninsulated, which may affect running costs despite recent upgrades.
Situated in the Barnsbury Conservation area, the house offers excellent transport links (Kings Cross St Pancras, Angel and Overground) and proximity to highly rated schools and local amenities, making it well suited to a family seeking character, space and convenience in central Islington.
