Light-filled Victorian conversion near Highbury & Islington — compact, well-connected, and turnkey.
Bright open-plan living with high ceilings and large windows
Set within an imposing Victorian terrace on St. Pauls Road, this one-bedroom flat offers bright open-plan living and direct access to Canonbury’s amenities. High ceilings and large sash-style windows flood the apartment with light, while an efficient contemporary kitchen and fitted bedroom storage make the most of the space. The property suits a first-time buyer seeking a stylish, compact home or an investor targeting strong rental demand in N1.
Practical details are clear and straightforward: the apartment is leasehold with 111 years remaining, an approximate service charge of £1,320 per year, and off-street residents’ parking. Heating is by mains gas boiler and radiators; the building’s solid brick construction likely has minimal cavity insulation, which could affect heating costs and comfort in winter.
Location is a prime asset. Upper Street, Highbury & Islington (Victoria Line) and Canonbury stations are within easy reach, offering fast links across London and beyond. The neighbourhood is inner-city cosmopolitan with plentiful cafés, restaurants, shops and green space at Highbury Fields, making day-to-day life convenient and well connected.
Buyers should note the apartment’s compact footprint (316 sq ft) and the area’s above-average crime statistic compared with national levels; both are important when considering security and space needs. Overall, this is a well-presented period conversion with strong transport links and immediate urban appeal, best suited to someone prioritising location and low-maintenance living.
