Barnsbury Road, London, N1

Behind its elegant stucco fronted late Georgian exterior, this beautifully reimagined apartment combines period character with sophisticated contemporary design. Redesigned by Architecture 201, the former open-plan layout has been transformed into a more considered broken-plan arrangement, creating a balance of openness and privacy.

The principal reception room features a striking round-headed sash window with Georgian glazing bars, high ceilings and a refined palette of Farrow & Ball finishes and Dowsing & Reynolds lighting. The adjoining dining area opens through triple-glazed Velfac French doors to a Juliette balcony overlooking the garden, while the distinctive apple-green Leicht kitchen provides a bold contemporary contrast, with integrated appliances and Mandarin Stone finishes.

The lower ground floor provides three bedrooms and three bathrooms, including a well-appointed principal suite. Enlarged windows bring natural light into the bedrooms, while bespoke joinery provides generous storage and a dedicated workspace. Outside, the east-facing courtyard garden has been thoughtfully landscaped with raised paving, creating a series of private outdoor spaces.

Situation

Set within the Barnsbury Conservation Area, Barnsbury Road has a peaceful residential character with a strong local community. The area is well served by popular pubs, cafés and restaurants, while Upper Street is within easy reach for further shopping, dining and culture.
