Light-filled two-bedroom maisonette with garden, close to Highbury & Islington and Angel stations.
809 sq ft maisonette with private rear garden
Set across 809 sq ft in one of Islington’s most convenient streets, this two-bedroom maisonette blends Victorian character with contemporary appointments. High ceilings and large sash-style windows flood the main reception with light, while a modern fitted kitchen offers integrated appliances and generous worktop space. A private rear garden provides outdoor space rare for central locations.
The layout suits a small family or a couple seeking space near excellent transport links — Highbury & Islington is around 0.6 miles and Angel about 0.4 miles, putting Victoria and Northern Line services within easy reach. Local schools include several well-rated primaries and two outstanding secondaries close by, and Upper Street’s shops, cafes and restaurants are at your doorstep.
Practical points to note: the property is leasehold with about 173 years remaining, and an average service charge of £1,190. Constructed before 1900 with solid brick walls, the building is likely to lack cavity insulation so further thermal improvements are possible and may be required for long-term running-cost savings. There is a single bathroom and the area records a very high crime rate — buyers should check local policing and security measures.
Chain-free sale and excellent digital connectivity are useful extras for those relocating for work or investment. Overall this is a well-proportioned, characterful home in a highly desirable central location, offering scope to personalise while benefiting from strong local amenities and transport.
