Set on a wide, tree-lined street in the Barnsbury Conservation Area, this Georgian mid-terrace offers substantial living space across basement, raised ground and two upper floors plus attic. High ceilings, original cornicing, sash windows and marble fireplaces give immediate period character, while the lower-ground kitchen/dining opens onto a private patio garden for urban outdoor living.
The layout suits a family or professional household: double reception rooms for entertaining, three bedrooms including a principal suite with fitted wardrobes, and two bathrooms including a guest wet room with underfloor heating. The house is chain-free and freehold, providing straightforward possession and potential to personalise to taste.
Practical considerations are clear: the building is solid-brick with no known wall insulation, and the plot and garden are modest. Council tax is described as expensive; the wider area records very high crime levels, which should be factored into security and insurance costs. There is scope to enhance value by upgrading insulation, reconfiguring upper floors or converting the loft subject to planning.
This is a large, characterful Islington home in a central location with excellent transport, schools rated Good–Outstanding nearby, and fast broadband and mobile signal. Buyers seeking a handsome period townhouse with immediate charm and clear potential for improvement will find this a compelling proposition.
