Set over five elegant floors, this Grade II listed Georgian end-of-terrace offers generous family accommodation across approximately 3,439 sq ft. The raised ground double reception and soaring 10ft-plus ceilings create an impressive central living space, while a conservatory and a 66ft rear garden provide valuable outdoor and entertaining areas in this prime Barnsbury location.
Accommodation is flexible for a growing household: six bedrooms across upper levels, three bathrooms, a lower-ground dining room and kitchen, separate utility, and vaulted storage. The top-floor room is a large, adaptable space suitable as a study, playroom or home cinema. Proximity to excellent schools, green spaces and frequent transport links makes the home particularly practical for families and commuters.
There are important considerations for buyers. The property’s Grade II listing will complicate alterations and require listed-building consent for many changes. The external walls are documented as cavity with no insulation (assumed), and double glazing was installed prior to 2002 — both points that may affect energy performance and future upgrade costs. Council tax is noted as quite expensive, and local crime levels are above average.
In short, this is a rare, characterful Barnsbury house that combines generous, period proportions with a long garden and excellent location. It will suit a family or buyer seeking substantial space and period detail, but expect listed-building constraints and likely investment to improve insulation and modern services.
