Accommodation: Large principal bedroom & en-suite bathroom, 4 further double bedrooms & family bathroom on the 1st floor. The ground floor has a 29ft triple aspect reception room accessing to 2 courtyards, dining/ family room with access to a courtyard along with kitchen, separate utility room & another bathroom.
The courtyards, designed by Joe Swift, open onto the driveway via opening full side gates for further access & sense of open space. They provide both beauty & privacy being perfect for alfresco entertaining.
The flow & sense of space is uniquely designed to include the courtyards via wide opening doors expanding the house into the courtyards & vice versa. This contributes to a breathtaking living experience over four aspects which is unavailable with any other property in Islington.
Storage is excellent & blends in with the house’s fabric to allow a very uncluttered look & feel, a blank canvas for any owners’ design ideas.
Though currently lapsed, the house had planning permission to add another floor plus glazing in one courtyard & has current planning permission for an extension on the first floor: With potential for adding 2,000sf in total (CGI Images above). Any addition will add a multiple of the cost to the value further future-proofing long term prospects.
For many however, this house needs no expansion as the bespoke design reduces utility space such that it feels like a house 50% larger than its’ footprint suggests.
The house is accessed via a privately owned cul de sac to the rear of a small, well-kept local gastropub, popular with neighbours & known for its community atmosphere. Its presence adds to the neighbourhood security & vibrancy without intruding on the privacy of the home.
The secluded location creates a private retreat meaning no invasion of privacy & no passing traffic, leading to it being a quiet restful place to live with immediate access to the liveliness of Upper Street & excellent travel hubs when desired.
Travel & communication are excellent with Underground, Overground & National & international hubs within minutes. The City & the West End are quickly accessible due to the central location.
Perfect for those who value refined living in a real London neighbourhood. A rare blend of central convenience & tucked-away privacy in this extraordinary home.
