A comfortable 52sqm 1-bed flat on tree-lined Highbury New Park, London N5. Embrace the character of high ornate ceilings, arched sash-windows with shutters, and tranquil garden views. Though centrally located, it provides a rural atmosphere. Excellent transport via Victoria Line, Overground, or bus makes central London effortlessly reachable. Your ideal London stay starts here! The flat is situated on the upper ground floor of a Victorian detached house, originally built around 1861. A 10-step staircase leads to the main front door, opening onto a meticulously maintained communal hall. The entrance to the flat is the first door on your left. Upon entering, you are immediately greeted by a stunning view of the lush garden, framed by a tall, arched sash window. The welcoming kitchen-diner area features a large, oval marble table, and a custom kitchen equipped with towering units, an oven, toaster, fridge/freezer, induction hob, washing machine, and a wooden countertop. To the left, a tall arched opening invites you into the sitting room, where a working Carrara marble fireplace and another arched sash window offer picturesque views of the well-tended garden. The sitting room is furnished with a large sofa and a bookshelf unit that cleverly conceals a flat-screen TV behind a sliding panel. A vintage desk-bookcase by the window serves as a peaceful spot for remote work or casual laptop browsing. Located to the left of the kitchen, a door opens to a bedroom complete with an ensuite bathroom that includes a bathtub. The bedroom features a recently installed wardrobe and a double bed with under-bed storage. Another arched sash window in the bedroom, and a stained-glass arched sash window in the bathroom, further highlight the flat's charming aesthetic. Access to the garden is obtained by exiting the main front door, turning right off the steps, and unlocking a red garden door with a provided passcode. The surrounding gardens are peaceful, quiet, immaculately maintained, and offer a great deal of privacy, thanks to the maturity of the neighbouring gardens.
