Summary - 5 CANONBURY GROVE LONDON N1 2HP
4 bed 2 bath Terraced
Period charm with modern comforts in a leafy, well-connected neighbourhood.
Grade II listed — conservation restrictions and higher consent costs likely
Newly renovated throughout with modern kitchen and bathrooms
Underfloor heating on ground and lower-ground levels
Large overall size: approx. 2,152 sq ft across four storeys
Small rear garden and compact front forecourt — typical mid-terrace plot
Solid brick walls (pre-1900) with assumed no insulation — retrofit work probable
Freehold tenure; no flood risk and excellent mobile/fast broadband
Council tax noted as quite expensive — budget for higher running costs
This four-storey Grade II listed terraced townhouse on Canonbury Grove combines generous period proportions with contemporary upgrades, creating a flexible family home in the heart of Canonbury. High ceilings, decorative mouldings, stained-glass detailing and a double reception provide classic character, while a fully modernised kitchen and sleek bathrooms deliver everyday convenience.
Practical upgrades include underfloor heating on the ground and lower-ground floors, a modern boiler with radiators, and fast broadband and excellent mobile signal suited to working-from-home. The lower-ground level opens to a landscaped rear garden, offering secure outdoor space for children and entertaining, albeit on a modest plot typical of urban mid-terraces.
Important considerations are the property’s Grade II listed status — valuable for heritage but likely to restrict alterations and add consent-related costs — and the solid brick construction with assumed lack of wall insulation. Council tax is described as quite expensive; prospective buyers should factor ongoing running costs and any specialist conservation maintenance into their budget.
Overall this newly renovated townhouse will suit families seeking a characterful home within a leafy, friendly Canonbury street, close to excellent schools, parks and transport links. It presents comfortable, turn-key living with the heritage trade-offs that come with protected status.
