Englefield Road, De Beavuoir, Islington, London, N1

A substantial semi-detached early Victorian family house of almost 2,500 sq ft, positioned on one of De Beauvoir’s most desirable, leafy and wide streets. Arranged over four floors, the house combines strong period character with generous proportions, a private landscaped garden and clear potential to reconfigure and extend to create an even more
impressive family home.

INSIDE

The raised ground floor is classically arranged with two generous reception rooms, defined by tall sash windows, high ceilings and retained original detailing. These are elegant, well-balanced spaces suited to both everyday
living and more formal entertaining.

The lower ground floor forms the natural hub of the house. A large kitchen occupies the front and a dining room sits to the rear, with direct access to the garden, creating an easy flow between inside and out. A central island anchors the space, and alongside there is a separate utility area and
excellent storage. A versatile room, currently used as a snug, is also found on this level and adds flexibility. Importantly, this level presents significant scope for enhancement. There is
clear potential to extend at the rear and create a substantial open-plan entertaining space, subject to the usual planning permissions.

Across the upper floors are four well-proportioned bedrooms and two bathrooms. The principal rooms benefit from large windows and leafy outlooks, reinforcing the sense of light and volume throughout. To the rear, the private garden is well established, with mature planting and a generous lawn, offering a calm, green backdrop and plenty of space for
outdoor dining and family use
