Summary - 38, Liberia Road N5 1JR
4 bed 2 bath Terraced
Character-filled four-bedroom family home near Highbury Fields and top schools.
Nearly 2,000 sq ft over three floors, spacious family layout
Set on one of Highbury’s most desirable tree-lined streets, this nearly 2,000 sq ft Victorian terrace blends original period detail with generous family living space. High ceilings, sash windows, cornicing and a bay-fronted reception create a bright, characterful front living room, while an extended kitchen with vaulted skylights and full-height glazing provides a modern, light-filled heart for daily life and entertaining.
Arranged across three floors, the house offers four well-proportioned bedrooms and two bathrooms, including a top-floor bedroom with a large ensuite — ideal for guests, a teen or a home office. A useful cellar (circa 100 sq ft) gives practical storage and scope for further improvement subject to planning. The private 18 ft rear garden provides a quiet outdoor space for children and al fresco dining, though the plot is modest in size.
Practical points to note: the house is solid-brick Victorian construction with no assumed wall insulation, and double glazing was installed after 2002. The property is freehold and has mains gas heating via boiler and radiators. There is no flooding risk. The local area is highly desirable but records higher crime levels; buyers should consider security measures. Any major structural or planning changes would be subject to local authority permissions.
Located moments from Highbury Fields and a short walk to Highbury Barn’s cafés and restaurants, this home suits families seeking space, schools rated Good or Outstanding nearby, and excellent transport links (Highbury & Islington and Arsenal stations). The property offers a strong blend of period charm and contemporary family living with potential to personalise further.
