4 bed terraced house for sale

Burgh Street, Angel, Islington N1

Tucked away on one of Islington’s most enchanting streets within the Duncan Terrace & Colebrooke Row Conservation Area, this Grade II listed townhouse extends to just over 2,000 sq ft. A home with a rare, practical layout for the area, it has been sensitively extended and balances historic charm with contemporary refinement.
Inside


On the raised ground floor, a magnificent 27-foot double reception stretches the depth of the house. Here, original shutters frame tall sash windows, while a period fireplace anchors the space – a reminder of the house’s Georgian pedigree. Timber flooring runs throughout, more recently laid yet in keeping with the elegance of the architecture.

At garden level, the house reveals its modern side. The kitchen and dining space have been opened and extended to the rear, where a glazed addition creates a light-filled backdrop for everyday living and entertaining. Bespoke joinery, contemporary cabinetry, and clean architectural lines sit harmoniously against the traditional fabric of the house. Double doors open directly onto a 20-foot courtyard garden – a private sanctuary with leafy outlooks and direct access from the street. Practicality is underscored by a utility room and two under-pavement vaults, providing generous storage.

The upper floors host an efficient floorplan and accommodate four generous bedrooms, served by two bathrooms and a dressing area. The careful restoration continues here, with bespoke carpentry, considered finishes, and light streaming in from every angle.
