Set on the second floor of a handsome Victorian conversion, this one-bedroom flat offers bright, well-proportioned living across 378 sq ft. High ceilings and large windows create an airy reception room while a separate fitted kitchen and double bedroom provide practical everyday living. The apartment faces the rear with peaceful garden views and benefits from a mature linden tree at the front.
Located in the Hillmarton Conservation Area, the address combines quiet residential character with excellent transport links. Caledonian Road (Piccadilly line) is nearby, with quick journeys to King’s Cross and central London; local cafés, shops and green spaces give a genuine neighbourhood feel.
The flat is offered leasehold with approximately 97 years remaining, a low ground rent of £10, and an EPC rating of D. The building is solid-brick Victorian construction with presumed lack of modern cavity insulation; upgrading heating, insulation or windows could reduce running costs and improve energy performance.
This property suits a first-time buyer seeking a compact Islington home or an investor looking for a lettable, centrally located one-bedroom. Note the apartment’s small overall size, average local crime levels, and the potential need for energy-efficiency improvements when assessing long-term value.
