Beautiful home on Lloyd Baker Street

Description

On the west side of Lloyd Baker Street this is a beautiful three storey house with an exceptional garden.

The current owners have restored the house to the highest standards with care and attention to all the fine fixtures and fittings throughout.

The accommodation is both light and airy and is flexible enough to offer more bedrooms or living space as required. Many period features such as fireplaces, large sash windows and shutters, and ceiling mouldings have been restored or replaced and the whole house has been styled and decorated to the highest standards.

The lower ground floor has been opened up from front to rear and runs into a custom-made kitchen that overlooks the garden. The kitchen itself has been beautifully designed and includes a clever coffee cupboard to secrete all necessary machines behind a door, rather than clutter the work surfaces.
A large skylight provides additional daylight.

If required, a third bedroom can be created at the front of
the lower ground floor by closing the existing folding
doors. It would be served by the adjacent bathroom.

The house is entered through a wide hallway with an original
arch, high ceilings and stained glass windows to the rear.
The ground floor has a wide double drawing room which is
flooded with natural light from the large sash windows.
Working shutters and original marble fireplaces complete
this calm and comfortable living space.

A utility room is situated on the half-landing between the raised and lower ground floors, leading to a separate WC and a door opening onto the garden.

The first floor has two double bedrooms, one en-suite, with an additional shower room off the half landing above.

The garden has been beautifully planted to create a private sanctuary with areas of sunshine and shade. With many mature evergreens, it is a pleasure to enjoy year-round.

This is a fine Clerkenwell house that is ready for immediate occupation.

Location

Lloyd Baker Street is a quiet turning just south of the Angel.
Right in the centre of a vibrant area, it is extremely quiet with
tree-lined streets and limited through traffic. Few of the
Georgian estates in central London have so distinctive and
elegant an architectural style as the Lloyd Baker estate, laid
out from the 1820s on the steeply sloping ground between
Amwell Street and Kings Cross Road. Number 33 is part of a
small row of similar long leasehold houses making up part of
the New River Conservation Area. The paired houses have shared pediments and Grecian details.

Local amenities with many eateries, bars and retail outlets are
provided by the offerings on Amwell Street, Upper Street,
nearby Exmouth Market and Clerkenwell Green.

It is well placed for local, national and international transport
links at Angel, Farringdon (Elizabeth Line) and Kings Cross St.
Pancras stations.

Square Footage: 1,601 sq ft
Leasehold with approximately 358 years remaining.
