Shepherdess Walk, Hoxton, N1

Discreetly positioned behind a Georgian terrace on Shepherdess Walk, this beautifully presented one-bedroom garden apartment offers approximately 728 sq ft of bright, thoughtfully arranged accommodation. With an entirely lateral layout, its own private entrance and a peaceful setting away from the road, this distinctive home combines contemporary interiors with a wonderfully secluded feel.

Accessed via the Georgian building to the front, the apartment occupies a single-storey structure at the rear, which operated as a metal finishing workshop until the early 2000s. Its subsequent conversion has created a stunning home with the character of a private garden retreat and a fascinating connection to the area’s industrial past. Ceiling heights of 2.72 metres throughout enhance the sense of space, while the generous proportions allow for comfortable living.

At the heart of the home is a stylish open-plan kitchen, dining and living area. The sleek, modern kitchen incorporates integrated appliances and sits comfortably within the wider reception space, creating a sociable setting. Six skylights bring natural light into the rear of the apartment, complemented by floor-to-ceiling sliding glazed doors across the front.

Opening directly onto the private garden, the sliding doors create an inviting connection between the interior and outdoor space. Positioned to the front of the apartment, within the quiet setting behind the terrace, the garden provides a welcome extension of the living area.

The accommodation is completed by one bedroom, a full bathroom and an additional WC. Ample storage throughout adds practicality to the beautifully styled interiors.

Shepherdess Walk is well placed for the cafés, restaurants, independent shops and bars of Islington, Upper Street, Hoxton and Shoreditch. Nearby Shepherdess Walk Park offers local green space, while Regent’s Canal provides an attractive setting for waterside walks. The City is within easy reach, and Old Street Underground station offers Northern line connections across London.
