Windsor Terrace, Hoxton, London, N1

Architecture and Interior

Built postwar, Micawber Court is atypical social housing of the mid-60s dotted around the borough.

Intelligently thought out, the design of these properties was for families, so have great storage, good sized bedrooms and front facing kitchens. Laminate flooring features throughout the ground floor, with carpet in the bedrooms on the first floor.

There is a generous hallway as you enter through your own front door with fantastic storage present under the stairs. Adjacent is a separate kitchen is finished in a neutral palate, with appliances including a fridge/freezer, dishwasher, electric fan oven, gas hob and washing machine.

To the rear of the ground floor, the living room is a lovely size with big bright double French doors leading straight onto a large patio.

On the first floor there are two generous size double bedrooms with a bright and sunny aspect.

The principal bedroom has a leafy view to the rear and has built in storage, whilst the second bedroom looks out over the front of the building and also has a large storage cupboard.

The bathroom is tastefully tiled, and is finished with a shower, W/C & wash basin.
