Stroud Green Road, Finsbury Park, N4

Tucked into the raised ground floor of an attractive Victorian terrace on Stroud Green Road, this one-bedroom apartment offers a generous 640 sq ft of beautifully presented living space. High ceilings and period proportions give the flat a real sense of space, while a considered contemporary finish makes it ready to move straight into.

Set back from the road behind a gated front garden and brick wall, steps lead up to the building’s distinctive aubergine front door. Inside, the standout space is the generous 19ft reception room, with a classic Victorian bay window bringing in plenty of natural light. Soft grey carpet runs throughout the reception room and hallway, while a cast-iron log burner sits on a honed black hearth, flanked by floating blue-grey shelves. There is ample room for both a full-sized dining table and a generous seating area, making this a particularly versatile space for everyday living and entertaining.

The separate kitchen is fitted with light oak-toned Shaker-style cabinetry, complemented by dark walnut-effect block worktops and slate-effect floor tiles. A window over the sink brings in natural light and looks out over greenery to the rear. The kitchen also features a stainless-steel gas hob with chimney extractor and a built-in oven, while a Vaillant combi boiler provides heating and hot water for the property.

The bedroom is a generously proportioned, near-square double measuring over 12ft in each direction. A large sash window brings in plenty of natural light, while a charcoal feature wall and white carpet provide a simple, contemporary finish.

The bathroom is finished with warm, large-format stone-effect tiling and features a three-quarter-length bath with overhead shower, alongside a rectangular vessel basin set on a dark wood-effect vanity shelf with traditional crosshead taps. Wood-effect flooring completes the room.

The Neighbourhood: Stroud Green

This stretch of Stroud Green Road puts you right in the thick of one of Inner North London's most truly independent high streets. For your coffee fix Common Ground Cafe is just up the road, a relaxed, plant-filled spot with a lovely rear garden, serving specialty coffee and an all-day brunch menu. For something to take home, Butler's Deli is the go-to for good cheese, charcuterie and wine, ideal for putting together an impromptu dinner or stocking up before guests arrive.

When it's time for a pint or a proper Sunday roast, The White Lion offers seasonal gastropub cooking just a short stroll away. While Finsbury Park itself - with its boating lake and expansive green space - and the wilder, leafier Parkland Walk nature reserve are both within easy reach for a decompressing weekend walk. Finsbury Park Station, with Piccadilly, Victoria and Great Northern/Thameslink services, is a short walk away for fast links across London and beyond.
