This striking three-bedroom maisonette combines dramatic double-height living space with practical city comforts. The reception room’s industrial-scale glazing and west-facing aspect create a bright, sociable heart ideal for entertaining or relaxing in the afternoon and evening sun. The open-plan, fully integrated kitchen and central island support modern family life and direct access to a small private courtyard extends the living area outdoors.
Set on a quiet, tree-lined street moments from Highbury Fields, the property sits within easy walking distance of Highbury & Islington and Drayton Park stations, Upper Street amenities and several highly rated schools. Sold chain free with a share of freehold, it offers confident ownership in a sought-after N5 location.
Buyers should note some practical considerations: the building’s solid-brick construction likely lacks cavity insulation, glazing install dates are unknown and Council Tax is Band G — all factors that may affect running costs. The local area records higher crime levels than average, which prospective purchasers should factor into their decision.
Overall, the apartment will suit buyers seeking light-filled, architect-designed city living with flexible entertaining space and excellent local transport and schools. It will particularly appeal to those willing to accept or invest in modest improvements to thermal efficiency and long-term running costs.
