Grosvenor Avenue, Newington Green, Islington, London, N5

A beautifully designed two-bedroom (and study) garden maisonette with its own private entrance, set nearby fashionable Newington Green.

INSIDE

Occupying the lower and raised ground floors of a handsome period terrace, this spacious home has been thoughtfully reimagined to blend period charm with refined, modern sensibilities.
At the raised ground level, a generously proportioned open-plan reception spans the full depth of the house. Light pours in from tall sash windows at both ends, creating a bright and uplifting space that’s perfect for entertaining or relaxing.

At one end, the living area centres around an elegant original fireplace with a cast iron surround and carved mantel. The other end is home to the kitchen and dining space, where open shelving, painted cabinetry, and stainless steel worktops come together in a design that feels both practical and characterful.

A cleverly designed study by “Cab Workshop” sits tucked away at this level, with bespoke joinery in a warm timber tone that conceals ample storage, open shelving and a fully integrated workspace—ideal for working from home. The large window in this room opens fully onto the garden and looks out to a mature cherry tree which is particularly beautiful in spring.

Original detailing is retained throughout complemented by cast iron radiators and on this level, bespoke shutters. The entrance takes you into the lower ground level where you’re met with a striking chequered marble floor and panelled walls.

The lower ground floor houses two peaceful double bedrooms, one of which enjoys leafy views onto the garden. Both are finished in soft, calming tones with panelled walls, parquet floors and built in wardrobes.

A stylish family bathroom features crisp white tiles, a full bath and contemporary fittings. There is also a deep under-stairs utility cupboard and a patio area just off the rear bedroom. The garden has been thoughtfully designed by “Landspace Design” to create a calm oasis that can easily maintained. A secluded seating area at the back is covered by a wooden pergola with climbing plants - a perfect spot for quiet reflection or an afternoon with friends.
