Large two-bed garden flat with parking in Highbury, close to Highbury Fields and transport.
Gated off-street parking for up to three cars
Set back on a quiet no-through road in Highbury, this ground-floor garden flat sits within an impressive late‑Victorian/Georgian house and offers a rare combination of outside space, parking and generous room sizes. The 21'1 x 19' reception room is bright from a large bay and French doors that lead onto a private, west-facing 28ft garden — ideal for children, entertaining and afternoon sun. The separate, roomy kitchen has space for dining and a contemporary workspace. Both bedrooms are doubles with built-in wardrobes and the property includes two modern bathrooms and useful storage.
Practical strengths include gated off-street parking for multiple cars, a very long lease (share of freehold, c.978 years), fast broadband and excellent mobile signal. The location is family-friendly: Highbury Barn’s shops and cafes, extensive green space at Highbury Fields, and several highly rated schools are all within easy walking distance. Transport links (Highbury & Islington, Arsenal and multiple bus routes) make commuting straightforward.
Be transparent about running costs and energy: the property is in a solid brick mid‑terrace building constructed before 1900 and has assumed uninsulated walls, which may affect heating bills and future retrofit costs. Service charges average £2,500 per year and local council tax is above average. Overall, this is a generous, characterful garden flat that will suit families or buyers seeking roomy living with outdoor space in a desirable inner‑city neighbourhood, but budget for maintenance and possible energy improvements.
