About
Built c.
1840, this early - mid Victorian townhouse in the Barnsbury conservation area offers three bedrooms, two bathrooms, over 2,000 sq ft of bright and beautifully proportioned living space and a walled, west facing garden.
Playful interiors combine with a wealth of original features including ceiling roses, ornate cornicing, fireplaces and full-length sash windows, all of which reflect the architectural elegance of the period.
Inside Entry is on the raised ground floor, where a welcoming reception room sits to the front of the house behind tall sash windows that frame leafy street views.
Fine period detailing runs throughout - decorative cornicing, a ceiling rose and a traditional fireplace anchoring the room.
To the rear, a second reception room offers a more intimate sitting space, equally rich in character and ideal as a study, reading room or snug.
The lower ground floor forms the social heart of the home.
A generous kitchen leads through to a bright dining room where large glazed wooden doors open directly onto the garden, with the skylights above drawing natural light deep into the house.
The layout works beautifully for everyday family life and entertaining, with the dining space enjoying a calm outlook over the greenery beyond.
A guest WC and useful vault storage are also located on this level. Across the upper floors, three well-proportioned bedrooms are arranged around the original staircase.
The principal bedroom and a huge principal bathroom span the full depth of the house on the first floor.
The bedroom is defined by elegant full-height sash windows, decorative cornicing and an original fireplace.
Built-in wardrobes provide practical storage while preserving the room’s classic proportions.
Two further bedrooms sit on the second floor, each with their own distinctive character and generous natural light.
The second shower room is located conveniently on the second floor mezzanine, serving the bedrooms on the upper level.
Throughout the home, the original architectural language of the Georgian period remains carefully preserved - fireplaces, ceiling roses, cornicing and tall sash windows combining with thoughtful modern updates to create a house that feels both timeless and comfortable.
To the rear, a mature garden extends to approximately 36 ft, with a paved terrace directly outside the house leading to a lawn framed by established planting.
It provides a private and peaceful outdoor space rarely found so centrally in Barnsbury.
