About this property
A striking four or five bedroom Victorian terrace on one of Highbury’s most desirable tree-lined streets, blending beautifully preserved period character with a bright, modern aesthetic - and the rare potential to extend into the loft.
Inside
This handsome red-brick home unfolds across three light-filled storeys, its 1,966 square feet cleverly configured to suit both family life and entertaining.
Entry takes you straight to the heart of the home, the ground floor is a real showstopper. Here, exposed brick walls, pale wide-board floors, and a full-width rear extension with a large skylight and wall of glass bring a contemporary edge. The open-plan kitchen, dining and family space is flooded with light and flows seamlessly into a sunny, landscaped garden via floor-to-ceiling sliding doors. Bespoke cabinetry and thoughtful joinery add elegance and practicality throughout.
The first floor makes a memorable impression, with a formal reception room, which could also be a principle bedroom, at the front framed by tall sash windows and ornate cornicing. Dark walls enhance the period fireplace and detailed ceiling rose. The rear room serves as a second reception, bedroom or study, depending on needs.
One of the bathrooms of two family-sized bathrooms is also found here and another bedroom sits on a half landing between the ground and first floors.
There are four generous bedrooms arranged over the two upper floors.
On the second floor, the principal bedroom spans the full width of the house and includes built-in wardrobes and a handsome fireplace. Behind it, the fourth bedroom also enjoys good proportions and natural light.
Two family-sized bathrooms - one on each of the upper floors - are fitted with marble-topped vanities, traditional tiling and high-quality fixtures. On the top floor
A real rarity for the street, this home retains a pitched roof, offering the possibility of further expansion into the loft, subject to the usual consents. Many neighbouring properties have flat roofs, making this a highly desirable and uncommon opportunity.
Neighbourhood & connections
Calabria Road is one of Highbury’s prettiest residential streets, known for its charming period houses and friendly, community feel. Highbury Barn - with its local favourite delis, bakeries and cafés - is just around the corner where foodies will discover recent new openings Lupa and Saltine, along with local favourites Da Mario’s Deli and La Fromagerie. For more superb local dining, you are only a short walk from Trullo.
The green open spaces of Highbury Fields and Clissold Park are both within easy reach.
Transport links are superb: Highbury & Islington station (Victoria Line and Overground) is just a short walk away, while Arsenal Underground and Drayton Park National Rail provide excellent alternatives. There are also a number of well-regarded primary schools nearby.
