Ardilaun Road, Highbury, London, N5

This large Victorian home is in an area that’s always sought after by families, as they offer nearly 2,000 sq/ft of good lateral living, over predominantly three floors. This home retains many period and original features, including ornate tiled hallway, fireplaces and ornate cornicing.

Of note is the original stained glass front door and the entrance hall with beautiful original tiled flooring. Leading off the hallway is a fabulous double reception room with a large bay window to the front and double doors to the rear that lead into an extended kitchen. A further set of double doors lead out to the predominantly West facing garden. Over the basement level is a versatile utility room with its own entrance and bathroom.

Across the first and second floors, in a lateral configuration, are two bathrooms and four bedrooms, the largest of them having the bay window, which allows light to flood in.

Ardillaun Road is moments from Highbury Fields and the cafes and independent shops on Highbury Barn. There are numerous transport links, with Highbury & Islington station a short and picturesque walk away through Highbury Fields, providing access to the Victoria Line and London Overground. Both Arsenal tube station, which provides access to the Piccadilly Line, and Drayton Park station, which offers direct links to Moorgate, are also within easy walking distance. The number 4 and 19 buses provide an alternative to access Upper Street and the city.
