Highwood Court, Highbury Crescent, Islington, London

Set within Highwood Court on Highbury Crescent, this inviting two-bedroom apartment brings together an airy living space, a private balcony and a setting beside one of north London’s best-loved green spaces.

Situated on the second floor and extending to approximately 671 sq ft (62.3 sq m), the apartment has a thoughtfully arranged layout, with an open-plan kitchen and reception room and two bedrooms positioned away from the main living area.

The reception room is the natural centre of the home. Timber flooring brings warmth to the space, while broad glazing and a door to the balcony draw the eye outside. There is room to settle in with a book, gather around the dining table or spend an evening with friends, with the kitchen conveniently alongside.

Arranged around a peninsula, the kitchen offers a practical combination of fitted cabinetry, worktop space and a breakfast bar. Its connection to the reception room makes it easy to cook and socialise, while keeping the preparation area clearly defined. Outside, the covered balcony provides an appealing extension to the living space. With room for a small table and chairs, it is a lovely spot for morning coffee or a quiet pause above the surrounding streets.

Both bedrooms accommodate a double bed, giving the apartment flexibility for couples, sharers or those wanting a dedicated room for guests or working from home. The principal bedroom benefits from an en-suite shower room, while a separate bathroom serves the second bedroom and visitors.

The result is a home with an easy, comfortable feel: a sociable living space, two bathrooms and a welcome place to sit outside. Beyond the front door, Highbury Fields and the surrounding neighbourhood bring green space, independent businesses and everyday convenience together.

Location:
Highbury Fields gives this part of north London a character of its own. Open lawns, mature trees and handsome surrounding streets create a neighbourhood where outdoor space is part of everyday life, whether that means a morning walk, a game of tennis or time spent catching up with friends.

Highwood Court sits on Highbury Crescent, beside the Fields and well placed for the area’s leisure facilities. The nearby gym and tennis courts add to the appeal of having an established green space so close to home.

Upper Street brings another dimension to the neighbourhood, with independent shops, cafés, restaurants, cinemas and theatres offering plenty to explore. From a relaxed weekend breakfast to dinner and a performance, there is a varied local scene beyond the park.

For travel across London, Highbury & Islington provides connections via the Victoria line, London Overground and National Rail, alongside local bus services. It is a location that makes room for both neighbourhood life and the wider city.
