Essex Road, Islington, N1 3PD

This architect-designed split-level maisonette is a beautifully considered home, with a contemporary, design-led interior, high ceilings and a wonderfully bright glass-fronted façade. Alongside its turnkey finish, you’ll have a private terraced garden, secure courtyard entrance, generous walk-in wardrobe and beautifully finished kitchen and bathroom.

Perfectly placed for the best of Islington, you’re just 0.4 miles from two stations - Essex Road (Great Northern line) and Canonbury (Windrush and Mildmay lines), and close to the independent shops, restaurants and bars of Angel, Upper Street, Canonbury and Dalston. It’s a stylish home in a brilliantly connected location, with a surprisingly private feel.

IF YOU LIVED HERE…

Tucked away behind its secure private courtyard entrance on Engelfield Road, this impressive split-level home feels a world away from the bustle of Essex Road. The glass-fronted design and high ceilings give the property a wonderfully bright and spacious feel, while the contemporary interior has been finished to an exceptionally high standard.

The open-plan living space is a real highlight, with the architect-designed layout making clever use of the available space and creating a home that feels both stylish and incredibly practical. There’s plenty of room to relax and entertain, with a seamless connection to your own private terraced garden.

The bedroom is a peaceful retreat, complete with a generous walk-in wardrobe that takes care of your storage needs without compromising on space. The kitchen and bathroom are equally impressive, with high-quality finishes and a thoroughly contemporary feel throughout.

Best of all, this is a true turnkey home, beautifully presented and ready to move straight into, with very little left for you to do other than unpack.

And while your immediate surroundings feel surprisingly secluded, both Essex Road (Great Northern line) and Canonbury (Windrush and Mildmay lines) stations are 0.4 miles away, putting the rest of the capital at your finger tips. You also have access to some great bus routes, including the 38.

Head west and you’re quickly into leafy Canonbury, where you’ll find charming streets, independent stores and neighbourhood favourites including The Canonbury Tavern, Pophams Bakery and Jolene.

Head east and Dalston brings a livelier, more eclectic energy, with Broadway Market, Ridley Road Market and a fantastic choice of restaurants, bars and independent shops. For food and drinks, you’re spoiled for choice, with favourites including Dusty Knuckle, Pophams and The Victoria all within easy reach.

WHAT ELSE?

-Despite being surrounded by so much urban life, there are plenty of places to get some fresh air nearby. Highbury Fields is close by, offering a lovely stretch of green space for running, picnics or simply escaping the city. - The apartment has already been impeccably finished, but if you’re feeling the need to mark your own personality, you’ll be pleased to find out that you’re only a short walk to Angel’s Cross Street, where there’s a Farrow & Ball and Little Greene amongst the other interior shops. The Regent’s Canal will always act as a soothing sight, especially when you can spot narrowboats meandering by. The Narrowboat pub is an excellent perch for this.

A WORD FROM THE OWNER...

"This home has been so much more than just a flat to us. We got engaged here, celebrated many special moments and have countless happy memories that we will always cherish.

We've loved the peace and privacy of the secluded garden and the feeling of coming home to somewhere that felt calm, safe and truly our own little bubble. It's a place that's hard to leave.

We're moving on with heavy hearts as we begin our next chapter and we hope the next owners will love this home as much as we do. It's a great place to create many wonderful memories."
