3 bed maisonette for sale

Aberdeen Park, London N5

Situated in the sought-after Aberdeen Park enclave, this distinctive maisonette has been reimagined by the acclaimed artists and designer Christabel MacGreevy to evoke the warmth of an English country home with a contemporary twist. Fully refurbished in 2023, and since featured prominently in House & Garden magazine, it retains a wealth of period features while offering a character and individuality seldom found in the heart of Highbury.

A private entrance leads into a generous boot room with bespoke cabinetry, soaring ceilings and extensive storage, creating a practical and welcoming introduction. A ground floor guest WC sits to the left. The bespoke kitchen forms the heart of the home, with playful yellow cabinetry, (‘Babouche’ by Farrow & Ball), bespoke Calacatta Mocha marble work surfaces centred around a large Bertazzoni range finder, with generous space for entertaining in a relaxed, country-inspired setting. DeVOL creamware pendant lights add a soft, warm glow, while French doors open directly to a private York Stone laid patio, beyond which lies open green space, perfect for al fresco dining. This level also includes a guest cloakroom, with underfloor heating beneath polished reclaimed limestone slabs throughout. The property has been fitted with Corston Architectural switch hardware throughout, and lighting design has been carefully considered throughout each room.

The first floor is arranged around a beautifully proportioned reception room, where refurbished original wooden flooring, a spectacular floor to ceiling original bay window and high ceilings are complemented by walls in duck egg blue from Papers & Paints. There is also access to a small first floor outdoor terrace overlooking more green space. Pierre Frey fabrics, exquisite cornicing and original working shutters complete the picture. There is also a discreet and recessed A/V system. The principal bedroom shares the same sense of light and space, with the highest ceilings of the property, enhanced by a cleverly designed mezzanine en suite shower room. The en suite wet room is finished in herringbone mandarin stone tiling, as well as mandarin stone Calactta honed floor to ceiling tiles with marble dado rail and marble skirting. There is recessed bespoke cabinetry for additional storage.

Two further double bedrooms occupy this floor, one spanning the full depth of the property, with dual aspect windows together with a stylish family bathroom finished with marble tiles, Sibyl Colefax & John Fowler wallpaper and underfloor heating.
A large loft space currently offers an abundance of storage, and planning permission has been obtained along with full architectural plans by Zöe Barber Architects, for an additional master en suite bedroom/ bathroom, which would create elevated views across the green spaces and mature parkland that the property overlooks.

An extraordinary, one of a kind home where artistry, comfort and functionality meet in one of Highbury’s most desirable addresses.
