An elegant Grade II listed Georgian terraced house offering 2,301 sq ft of flexible family living across several floors. The raised double reception benefits from large sash windows, decorative mouldings and a wood-burning stove, while a fitted kitchen and dining room open to a rear patio — useful low-maintenance outdoor space in central Primrose Hill. The property retains many original period features and generous ceiling heights, delivering clear character and bright rooms throughout.
The upper floors accommodate five double bedrooms and two bathrooms, making the house well suited to a growing family or those who need home office space. Practical benefits include a utility room, ample built-in storage, bike storage in the front garden and excellent local transport links with Camden Town station and many bus routes nearby. Primrose Hill, Regent’s Park and the canal towpath are all within easy walking distance.
Important practical points: the Grade II listing will restrict alterations and can complicate refurbishment or extension work, and the house will require sensitive repair and maintenance to preserve its historic fabric. The plot is small with patio gardens only, council tax is described as quite expensive, and local crime levels are reported as very high — factors to weigh for buyers prioritising outdoor space and low-crime neighbourhoods.
This freehold townhouse offers strong location and period appeal for buyers seeking a spacious family home with character in one of north London’s most desirable pockets. It is best suited to someone comfortable with listed-building responsibilities or prepared to commission specialist works where required.
