An impressive late Georgian / early Victorian townhouse offering exceptional space across four storeys. At approximately 1,862 sq ft (including vault) the house delivers very generous room proportions, high ceilings and abundant natural light — ideal for families seeking period character close to the City. Original features remain well preserved: sash windows, cornicing, fireplaces, wooden floors and an elegant winding staircase.
Outdoor space is a genuine asset in central London: a south-facing 70 ft rear garden backing onto St Paul’s Shrubbery plus an almost 20 ft front garden provide private green amenity. The layout includes a double reception, open dining room and fitted kitchen with integrated appliances; the top bedroom enjoys distant City views. Canonbury Station and Highbury/Upper Street are within easy walking distance, and strong local schools and neighbourhood amenities support family life.
Buyers should note this is a Grade II listed building. Listed status preserves historic character but restricts alterations and will require specialist consents for many changes. The property sits in Council Tax band G, and parking is on-street only. Despite sensitive upgrades by the current owner, any planned extensions or major remodelling need formal approvals.
For families or buyers seeking a substantial, characterful home in Islington, this house offers rare scale and a private garden while retaining period detail. It suits purchasers prepared to work within conservation constraints to unlock further potential.
