Set over raised ground, first and lower-ground floors, this Victorian mid-terrace blends original period character with practical family living. The reception room on the raised ground floor retains high ceilings, sash windows, a traditional fireplace and original shutters, while the principal bedroom upstairs is bright with built-in storage. A generous four-piece bathroom adds everyday convenience.
The lower-ground level is arranged for social living: a 16' x 10' dining room leads into a galley kitchen and opens directly onto a south-east facing garden (16' x 19'), ideal for morning sun and al fresco meals. A front storage room and patio provide extra useful space and access to the historic Vaults. Total internal area is approximately 1,245 sq ft, offering roomy proportions for a two-bedroom home in N1.
Practical considerations are clear: the property is freehold with mains gas heating via boiler and radiators, double glazing installed before 2002 and solid brick walls with no assumed insulation. Council tax is expensive and the plot is small, so outside space is modest. The location sits within the Arlington Square Conservation Area, close to cafés, independent shops and good transport links — excellent for commuters and families seeking inner-city convenience.
This house suits buyers who value period character and generous room sizes in a well-connected Islington location, and who are prepared to update elements such as glazing and wall insulation to improve energy performance and running costs. The quieter street benefits from a Local Traffic Neighbourhood scheme, reducing traffic and enhancing the residential feel.
