Northampton Grove, Canonbury, Islington, N1

A design-led one-bedroom apartment, set within a handsome, gated Victorian factory conversion with off street parking, on a peaceful turning in Canonbury.

INSIDE

This thoughtfully reimagined home forms part of Floral Place, a collection of just eight bespoke residences created from a late-Victorian factory. Each apartment within the development is unique, with this one-bedroom flat showcasing a careful balance of period character and modern refinement.

The open-plan reception and kitchen is positioned beneath a bank of roof lights, ensuring a stream of natural light throughout the day. Underfoot, chevron-laid Xylo Fitzrovia flooring runs across the space, warmed by discreet underfloor gas heating. The kitchen is elegantly minimalist and finished in a monochrome palette, with integrated Neff appliances including oven, hob, fridge and dishwasher set against sleek cabinetry and quartz-style work surfaces.

The double bedroom enjoys views of surrounding greenery, with excellent proportions that allow for both sleeping and work-from-home zones. Storage is neatly integrated, and the space is designed with clean lines and a calming atmosphere.

The bathroom continues the contemporary theme: matt porcelain tiling, a walk-in rainfall shower with Crittall-style screen, and matt-black brassware create a sharp, architectural finish.
Throughout the apartment, the developer’s commitment to quality is evident: from the installation of a brand-new roof and full insulation, to the fire-rated internal and external doors, ensuring safety as well as comfort.
