THE PROPERTY

A generously proportioned split-level maisonette occupying the lower ground and ground floors of a handsome period corner building on Newington Green Road. At 826 sq ft it offers considerably more space than is usual for a property of this type, with the accommodation arranged over two floors and two distinct reception rooms.

Ground floor

The front door opens directly off the street into the ground floor reception room, a bright, well-proportioned space with a tall window to the front, decorative cornicing and a balustraded stair leading down to the lower floor.

To the rear is the principal bedroom suite — a long, open room, comprising a double bedroom which opens through into a fully tiled shower and washing area with large walk-in shower enclosure and pedestal basin. The arrangement is open plan between the two, giving the bedroom an unusual sense of scale and light.

Lower ground floor

The stair descends to the main reception room, a quiet, well-insulated space away from the street with cornicing and good ceiling height.

The kitchen is fitted along two runs with light timber units, worktops, gas hob, oven and extractor, tiled walls and a patterned tiled floor, together with a slim breakfast bar. A separate fully tiled WC sits off the hallway, with plumbing and space for a washing machine.

The property benefits from gas central heating throughout and traditional folding security shutters to the ground floor windows.

LOCATION

Newington Green sits on the border of Islington, Hackney and Stoke Newington, and has become one of the most sought-after pockets in North London. The green itself is on the doorstep, surrounded by an unusually good run of independent bakeries, coffee shops, delis, pubs and restaurants.

Clissold Park and Abney Park are both within easy walking distance, as is Stoke Newington Church Street. Canonbury and Dalston Kingsland Overground stations are nearby, with Highbury & Islington (Victoria Line, Overground and Great Northern services into Moorgate and King’s Cross) within easy reach. Frequent bus routes run along Newington Green Road and Green Lanes.
