With an outstanding location in the Canonbury Conservation Area, this three-bedroom Grade II-listed Georgian house has wonderful interiors and a south-facing garden. Despite being just a short walk from Upper Street, the house has a beautifully leafy aspect, overlooking the New River at the front and gardens at the rear.
The interior of the property was refurbished by the designer Faye Toogood, and combines old and new to exemplary effect. Many original Georgian features remain, including working fireplaces and wide wooden floorboards.
