Ellington Street, London, N7

Set on the raised ground floor of a handsome Victorian terrace on one of Islington’s most sought-after tree lined roads, this beautifully presented two double bedroom flat benefits from a private walled garden.

The charming accommodation comprises a bright semi open plan kitchen / dining / reception room, bathed in natural light from the large sash window to the front, which enjoys pleasant views over the fine period properties on Ellington Street. This glorious room also boasts high ceilings, plantation shutters and modern wooden flooring. The fully integrated kitchen is finished with white gloss units that reflect the natural light, complemented by grey granite worktops and tiled flooring.

To the rear are two double bedrooms overlooking the south facing garden. Both bedrooms offer excellent natural light and useful storage. The principal bedroom provides direct access to a south-facing balcony, covered in fragrant jasmine, with steps leading down to the private section of the walled garden; a beautiful peaceful oasis surrounded by mature trees and shrubs. This handsome home also benefits from a recently refurbished shower room.

Ellington Street is a quiet, tree lined road running parallel to Arundel Square, a delightful and much-loved focal point for local residents. The square offers a strong sense of community, hosting activities such as yoga, boxercise, basketball and table tennis, alongside a book exchange and an annual fireworks display.

The property is perfectly placed to take advantage of the many amenities of King’s Cross, Islington and Holloway. A wide selection of popular gastropubs is located just moments away, including The Duchess of Kent, The Hemingford Arms, The Drapers Arms and The Albion, to name just a few. Upper Street, Holloway Road, Granary Square and Coal Drops Yard are all close by, offering an array of boutique shops, delicatessens, bars and restaurants.

Excellent transport links are also within easy reach, including Highbury & Islington (London Overground and Victoria line), Caledonian Road & Barnsbury (London Overground) and Caledonian Road (Piccadilly line).
