Located between De Beauvoir Town and Shoreditch Park, the apartment benefits from a prime location with the buzz of North London on its doorstep, yet remains tucked away enough to feel residential and private. Available on a furnished basis for a short let, this two-bedroom apartment is well suited to those seeking a well-designed base in the heart of N1.

The apartment opens into a wide entrance hall with wood flooring and built-in storage, setting the tone for a practical yet generous layout. To the left is a neatly finished family bathroom, fitted with a full-sized bath and overhead shower, WC and basin. Both bedrooms are accessed from the hall—one a bright and spacious double room, the other currently laid out as a home office or child’s bedroom—each offering direct access to the wraparound balcony that circles the perimeter of the apartment.

The heart of the home is the open-plan reception, where the galley-style kitchen faces a flexible dining and living area. Floor-to-ceiling glazing draws in natural light and opens directly onto the expansive balcony, creating an easy flow between indoor and outdoor spaces. The kitchen is fully integrated with modern appliances, and the living area is comfortably furnished to support both work-from-home days and relaxed evenings in.

Southgate Road is well-connected for transport, with Haggerston Overground a 10-minute walk away, linking quickly to Highbury & Islington and Canada Water. For Underground access, Angel and Old Street stations (Northern Line) are both within 20 minutes on foot or a short bus ride, while several bus routes serve the immediate area, connecting through the City, West End and beyond.

The apartment is ideally situated between the calm, tree-lined streets of De Beauvoir and the creative energy of Shoreditch and Hoxton. Nearby Kingsland Road offers a mix of independent shops, cafés and restaurants, while Regent’s Canal and Shoreditch Park are a short stroll away. For essentials, there’s a large Sainsbury’s within walking distance, and the weekend Broadway Market or Columbia Road Flower Market are easily reached by bike or bus.
