About this property
A beautifully appointed one-bedroom apartment set within an elegant Victorian terrace, offering over 650 sq ft of lateral space, a private entrance, and a patio. Meticulously designed and finished, this home blends contemporary interiors with period charm and lies just moments from the independent spirit of Newington Green.
Inside
Occupying the entire lower ground floor of a handsome Victorian house, the apartment opens via its own private entrance into a bright, open-plan living and dining space. Crisp white walls, bespoke joinery and high-spec finishes give the interior a confident, design-led feel. The room is cleverly zoned—at one end, at the back of the relaxed lounging area, an almost floor to ceiling window frames the greenery beyond the patio outside, while the opposite side comfortably accommodates a dining table for entertaining.
The kitchen is smartly arranged, with sleek white cabinetry, subway tiling and dark countertops. A window above the sink brings in natural light and offers a view out to the patio beyond.
The bedroom is generous in scale, retains original shutters and has a soft neutral palette, bay window seat, and extensive fitted wardrobes. The bathroom enjoys underfloor heating and is finished in bold monochrome tones with dark blue tiles and brushed steel fittings, lending a clean, modern edge.
A patio sits on the other side of the kitchen —ideal for summer barbecues, morning coffee or simply a green escape from city life.
This design-conscious home is in one of the most desirable corners of Islington—ideal for first-time buyers, downsizers or those looking for a serene pied-à-terre with style.
