Summary - 5, COLLEGE CROSS, LONDON N1 1PT
4 bed 2 bath Maisonette
Bright, period home with spacious open-plan living and excellent transport links.
Four double bedrooms including principal with en-suite
An exceptionally bright, well-presented Grade II listed upper maisonette arranged over four floors with four double bedrooms and a private secluded rear garden. High ceilings, large sash windows and a long lease (968 years) combine period charm with practical security for long-term ownership. The principal bedroom includes built-in wardrobes and an en-suite shower room; the L-shaped open-plan kitchen/reception is spacious and ideal for family living or entertaining.
This home sits in a quiet turning within the Barnsbury conservation area, a short walk from Upper Street’s shops, pubs and transport hubs (Angel and Highbury & Islington). The layout provides flexible living across multiple levels, including useful eaves storage, a utility area and a guest WC. Fast broadband and excellent mobile signal suit modern working-from-home needs.
Buyers should note material constraints: Grade II listing will restrict some alterations and may complicate consent for changes. The building has traditional solid brick walls (likely no cavity insulation) and the council tax band is expensive. Crime statistics in the immediate area are above average and the garden/plot is modest in size. Overall this is a characterful, centrally located family home that balances Victorian detail with contemporary finishes, best suited to purchasers who value location and period features and who accept listed-building limitations.
