3 bed terraced house for sale

Ripplevale Grove, Barnsbury, Islington, London N1

A beautifully preserved three-bedroom, two-bathroom Victorian house on one of Barnsbury’s most admired streets, with elegant proportions, original features, and a south-facing garden.
Inside


Set across four storeys and extending to almost 2,000 sq ft, this house has been sensitively maintained to honour its Victorian heritage while introducing a refined, contemporary edge.
The raised ground floor is dedicated to two connected reception rooms. Original floorboards run throughout, complemented by ornate ceiling roses, fine cornicing, and a working marble fireplace. At the front, a large sash window frames leafy views of Ripplevale Grove, while to the rear, a full-height floor-to-ceiling sash window bathes the room in light and overlooks the garden. Together, the rooms create a space equally suited to entertaining or quiet family living.

On the lower ground floor, a superbly appointed kitchen by Plain English stretches the full depth of the house. Bespoke cabinetry is finished in a muted palette, paired with Carrara marble counters and an Aga at the heart of the design. An adjoining dining space opens through glazed doors onto the garden, while extensive shelving and a fireplace enhance the sense of warmth and character. From here, a stone-paved terrace leads to a private garden enclosed by brick walls and mature planting, offering a calm retreat from the city.

Upstairs, three generous bedrooms are arranged across the first and second floors. The principal bedroom spans the width of the house and retains its original fireplace and sash windows. Further bedrooms enjoy peaceful views over the garden or street, with plenty of natural light throughout.
