27, De Beauvoir Square, London, N1 4LE

An exquisite home located on the prestigious De Beauvoir Square Description Savills are proud to bring to market this elegant Victorian semi-detached house overlooking the beautiful De Beauvoir Square, with attractive open views directly across the green.

The property is arranged over approximately 1,715 square feet and has been truly cherished by the current owner for over 30 years.

The ground floor provides elegant living space with excellent ceiling heights of approximately 2.86m, enhancing the sense of light and volume throughout.

To the front, a bay-fronted sitting room enjoys attractive views across De Beauvoir Square and centres around a striking limed oak fireplace with wood-burning stove, creating a warm and inviting focal point.

Crown-glazed limed oak French doors with parliament hinges connect to the kitchen which was recently updated (November 2024) and features Nero Absolute granite worktops, quality fittings and a marble windowsill overlooking the south-facing garden.

The lower ground floor offers highly versatile accommodation, currently arranged as a formal dining room and an additional front reception room/library, along with a well-proportioned guest bedroom to the rear enjoying views of the garden.

This level provides excellent flexibility for guest accommodation, working from home, or dedicated office space. This floor has also been fitted with new Portuguese cork flooring throughout.

The upper floors comprise four bedrooms in total.

The first floor provides a generous double bedroom, a second room which could be used as a smaller bedroom, office space or dressing room, alongside a family bathroom, while the second floor offers two further bedrooms, with the rear having stunning views of the city.

Both floors benefit from well-proportioned landings, enhancing the sense of space and flow throughout. This floor also benefits from useful storage space, ideal for luggage.

Ceiling heights on the first floor remain strong at approximately 2.60m, maintaining a consistent sense of proportion across the house.

Externally, the south-facing garden is a particular highlight, thoughtfully arranged across three distinct terraces.

A raised breakfast deck leads, via a steel staircase, to a central lawn with mature borders, while a lower patio set beneath a kiwi tree provides a more secluded seating area.

Gated side access, garden sheds and discreet front garden bike storage add further practicality.

Please note that this property is currently held under two separate leases and will need to undergo the enfranchisement process in order to be reinstated as a single freehold dwelling.

On a point of detail and independent of the enfranchisement process, the successful purchaser will also need to regularise matters with London Borough of Hackney.

The seller has had a draft application prepared by FirstPlan. This has been paid for but will not be submitted until they are satisfied that the enfranchisement will be successful.

The owner also has already merged the lbh Council Tax which they feel should simplify proceedings.
