Totalling near 3,200 sq ft, three windows wide, set
across five floors, with a west facing near 80 ft rear
garden, this Georgian property provides an ideal
template to create a stand out family home.
The raised ground floor is home to the reception and
kitchen space with timber sash windows at either end
overlooking the fields to the east and garden to the
west, an ideal orientation for all day natural light. High
ceilings, cornicing, and a marble fireplace offer ample
original period grandeur. The first floor is home to a
further reception room with three tall sash windows
over Highbury Fields and yet more period detail with the
addition of a ceiling rose, a double bedroom completes
the floor to the rear. The top two floors are reserved
for three further bedrooms and two bathrooms, there
is potential on the second floor to create a standout
principal suite. The lower floor is currently arranged as a
reception and bedroom space leading to the west facing
near 80 ft garden, as well as providing dual access to
the house from the front and storage.
The dual access is ideal for formulating a guest or nanny
area. A truly outstanding home with strong bones, rarely
available to the open market, the house has been owned
by the same family for over 40 years, evidencing the
opportunity. Architect’s plans are available on request to
help visualise the space turnkey and we are for sale with
no onward chain.
