Grosvenor Avenue, Islington, London, N5

A beautifully designed two-bedroom, two-bathroom garden flat, set within a contemporary development on one of Highbury’s sought after streets between Canonbury and fashionable Newington Green.

INSIDE

Extending to over 850 sq ft, this ground-floor apartment combines modern architectural design with warm, natural finishes. The open-plan kitchen and reception room is arranged to the rear, with full-height glazed doors opening directly onto a large private patio garden. White cabinetry and integrated appliances sit beneath clean lines, with a central island topped in wood providing a natural focal point for entertaining.

The living area flows seamlessly into a flexible dining and lounge space, where timber floors run throughout and a neutral palette creates a sense of calm. A secondary set of glazed doors open from the adjacent second bedroom, ensuring a continuous connection with the garden and flooding the space with light.

At the opposite end of the apartment, the principal bedroom is generously proportioned, with an en suite shower room finished in large-format tiles and brassware. A second bathroom, clad in striking marble-effect tiling, serves the remainder of the apartment. Both bathrooms feature contemporary fittings, walk-in rainfall showers, and sleek modern detailing.
Storage has been carefully considered, with bespoke joinery in the bedrooms and a wide hallway adding to the sense of space.

OUTSIDE

The apartment benefits from two private outdoor areas — a large rear patio garden arranged with ample space for outdoor dining and entertaining, as well as a smaller patio accessible directly from the principal bedroom. Residents also enjoy use of a communal garden to the rear of the development, with neatly landscaped lawns and seating areas. This is accessed via the private garden.
The building itself is instantly recognisable from the rear, with its living wall façade, partially wrapped in greenery that changes with the seasons.
