4 bed terraced house for sale

Barford Street, Angel, Islington, London N1

A substantial and noticeably wider than average four bedroom late Georgian / early Victorian terraced house positioned on a quiet Angel’s residential street, offering almost 2,400 sq ft of internal space and an opportunity to restore and reimagine a period home of genuine character.

Arranged across five levels, the house retains an exceptional collection of original features throughout, including original doors and cabinetry, exposed floorboards, fireplaces, ornate coving, timber sash windows with original panelling, and the original staircase and banister running through the centre of the home.
Inside


Entry is via the raised ground floor, where two interconnecting reception rooms run from front to back. High ceilings, full-height sash windows and original detailing give both rooms excellent volume and proportion, while the traditional layout lends itself naturally to either formal reception spaces or a more contemporary open-plan approach.

The lower ground floor currently houses a large kitchen to the rear opening directly onto the garden, alongside a separate dining room to the front. A utility space and vault storage sit beneath the front patio, while the rear garden extends to approximately 38 ft and offers excellent privacy and scale for central London.

The first and second floors provide four generous double bedrooms arranged across two levels, served by a large family bathroom. The principal bedroom spans almost the full width of the house on the second floor, with large sash windows and retained original features throughout. Above, the top floor currently provides a further study or occasional room beneath the roofline.

The existing footprint and room proportions offer considerable flexibility for an incoming owner, whether restoring the house sensitively in keeping with its period origins or undertaking a more comprehensive architectural renovation.
Neighbourhood & connections


Barford Street sits in the heart of Angel, moments from Upper Street and surrounded by some of Islington’s best regarded restaurants, pubs and independent spots.

Two local pubs around the corner serving exceptional food - and widely considered among the best Sunday roasts in London - are The Pig and Butcher and The Drapers Arms, while Upper Street itself remains a dining destination in its own right, home to longstanding institution Frederick’s which has been part of the neighbourhood since 1969. Wider Islington offers an ever-evolving mix of acclaimed restaurants and drinking spots, including favourites such as The Tamil Prince and Bellanger to name just two.

Transport connections are exceptional. Angel Underground (Northern Line), Highbury & Islington (Victoria Line, Overground and National Rail) and King’s Cross St Pancras are all nearby, placing the City, West End and international Eurostar connections within easy reach.
