A climbing-rose Victorian terrace on a quiet North London court, this house rewards the moment you step inside. The skylit kitchen-diner is made for long, unhurried meals, while the book-lined living room – warmed by an open fire – makes it easy to lose an evening. Come warmer months, the leafy garden becomes its own little retreat. For when London calls, the Tower of London is a twenty-two-minute drive and Tate Modern roughly twenty-eight minutes away, though the neighbourhood itself has plenty to keep you close to home.

Home truths
You're a short walk from Finsbury Park, with the Victoria and Piccadilly lines and the Overground nearby – central London is easy to reach without a car. We recommend leaning on public transport, as parking in London can be challenging.
While there's no air conditioning here, your host can provide fans for the warmer months.
Only the lead booker can check in – if you can't be there yourself, the person arriving in your place will need to be added to the booking in advance.
The fourth bedroom shown in the floorplan is used as storage for the owner's belongings – it's not accessible to guests.

Local guide
About Stroud Green
Stroud Green is a bit of a local secret. It's a foodie haven in an unpretentious part of North London, just next to Finsbury Park tube station and not far from Islington. There's a very friendly community feel to the area and it still has a real (dare we say authentic) neighbourhood feel. Off the main road with all its many restaurants, you'll find attractive leafy terraces of Victorian houses. Oh and be sure to track down The Faltering Fullback, a charming Irish pub packed with character and an excellent secret garden out the back.
