Offered to the market for the first time since 2006, this rarely available two double bedroom duplex garden apartment provides approximately 903 sq ft of generously proportioned accommodation together with an exceptional south-facing private garden extending to approx 41 ft.
The property offers an unusually spacious and versatile layout in a prime Islington location. The home has been well maintained and is perfectly habitable as it stands, while providing an excellent opportunity for a purchaser to enhance the interiors through straightforward cosmetic updating, including redecoration and new flooring.
The lower level comprises a substantial principal bedroom measuring approximately 13'11" x 12'7", a separate fitted kitchen, bathroom and excellent storage.
