Malvern Terrace, Islington, Londres

This beautiful double fronted early Victorian house is located in the virtually secret enclave Malvern Terrace, which is a cul-de-sac, located in the heart of the Barnsbury Conservation area.

The house is one of 11 (largely all different) houses that makes up this very special residential spot.

The house has been very well maintained in the last period, but would now benefit from some updating. This is a an untypical Islington house in a perfect Islington location. The accommodation on the ground floor includes a front to rear drawing room on the left hand side of the front door and the dining/day room and fitted kitchen on the right.

All the living, with surprisingly high ceilings, and beautiful period features on one floor. The first floor has a through bedroom , dressing and ensuite bathroom, plus two further double bedrooms and a further bathroom. The lower ground floor has a further ensuite bedroom, perfect for guests, and another room that would suit a home office. Many period features are retained with ceiling mouldings, sash windows with shutters and fireplaces.

The sunny south facing front garden is, unusually, the principal outside space. It is more private than most rear gardens as it is at the end of a short cul-de-sac and it looks over the small and pretty Thornhill Road Gardens. It is largely laid to lawn with mature borders at the side. At the rear, there is a private courtyard with brick wall surround.

Making up part of the Barnsbury Conservation area Malvern Terrace is a particularly quiet part of the area. Transport links are provided for at The Angel (buses and Piccadilly Line ) and Highbury Corner (buses, Victoria Line, London Overground and National Rail). Upper Street has multiple eateries, shopping and other amenities that make Islington such a pleasurable and easy part of London to live in.
