Barnsbury Terrace, Barnsbury, Islington, London, N1
Set across four generous levels, this Victorian home retains a wealth of original period features including ornate cornicing, ceiling roses, fireplaces and the original stained glass panelled front door, all carefully preserved to reflect its architectural heritage.
INSIDE
The ground floor living room is a striking part of a double height living space where the front large sash windows frame views across Barnsbury Square. Beautiful Victorian cast iron balconies enhance the connection to the leafy surroundings, whilst the flowing layout and abundant natural light create a bright, welcoming atmosphere.
At garden level, a Shaker-style kitchen is accessed through reclaimed Victorian stained-glass double doors. The space is generously proportioned to accommodate a large central dining table, with direct access to the leafy mature and secluded West facing garden, an ideal setting for al fresco entertaining. A separate dining room adjoins the kitchen, providing versatility for both formal and informal gatherings.
The lower ground floor has been skilfully excavated and reconfigured to create a utility room, wine store, workshop, guest WC, and an additional flexible-use room—well-suited as a gym, cinema, or home office.
Upstairs, there are four bedrooms, a family bathroom, and an additional guest WC. The top floor is home to a particularly spacious bedroom with skylights and French doors opening onto a private terrace with far-reaching views across the London skyline.
