Set over two floors with its own entrance, this split-level maisonette offers bright, newly renovated living in a convenient N1 location. The reception room opens directly onto a south-facing rear garden, and both front and rear private gardens add rare outdoor space for central-Islington homes. The layout includes two double bedrooms, a separate kitchen and a modern family bathroom, arranged across approximately 668 sq ft of accommodation.
The property is offered chain free and presented in good decorative order, with double glazing and recent fitments throughout. Transport connections are strong: Essex Road and Angel Underground are within easy reach, and Regent’s Canal and Upper Street’s shops, bars and restaurants are a short walk away. Broadband speeds and mobile signal are reported as good, supporting home working.
Practical points to note: the flat is leasehold with 89 years remaining, an annual service charge of £2,185.26 and a £10 ground rent. The building dates from the 1950s–1960s and has solid brick walls (insulation status assumed absent), which may affect future retrofit costs. Crime is described as average for the area.
This home will suit a first-time buyer or couple seeking a ready-to-move-in central-Islington base with private outside space and low immediate renovation need. Buyers should account for the sub-90-year lease when arranging financing and factor service charges and potential running costs for older construction into their budgets.
