In the buzzing quarter of Islington, this home sits pretty amongst its fellow Victorian townhouses. It’s less than a ten-minute walk to Upper Street, packed with bars, delis and restaurants. Join the tree-draped New Riverside Walk at the end of your road for a bit of tranquillity, or jump on the Tube at Highbury & Islington to access London’s major attractions. The apartment itself is set up for business and pleasure – one wall of the living room is dedicated to a library-like desk area, brimming with books and music. While the other end of the living room is centred around a classy fireplace and state-of-the-art home cinema system. The dining room has a grand feel, with its gilded mirror above the (working) marble fireplace and corniced ceiling. Next door, the kitchen is a different world – sparkling white surfaces and a breakfast bar seating four. If you want to take your meal outside, the communal garden has a long outdoor dining table amidst its topiary hedges. Please note all stays of 8 nights or more include complimentary weekly cleaning, linen changes and replenishment of toiletries.
