1 bed maisonette for sale

Mortimer Road III, London N1

This bright one-bedroom maisonette is located in De Beauvoir, north London, close to excellent pubs, shops, and bars. A series of deep rooflights illuminates the main, gallery-like living space, where quarry tiles and white-painted, exposed brick walls create a refined, timeless ambience.

The Tour

Entry to this home lies to the side of a smart stock-brick building, behind a private gate. Set back from the building, the apartment feels wonderfully tranquil.

The front door opens to a large reception room, a space generous enough for distinct dining and sitting spaces. Generous rooflights punctuate overhead, drawing in plenty of natural brightness.

Stairs descend from this room to the lower ground floor, where a cherry-red kitchen lies. Formica countertops provide plenty of space, and appliances - including an induction hob and oven from Samsung - have been integrated. From the kitchen, a door opens to a smart bathroom with useful storage, replete with crisp white tiling.

The bedroom lies upstairs, beyond the living space. A terracotta-red wall and adds a tonal warmth to the room. Two large built-in wardrobes here provide plenty of storage, and an internal window borrows light from the living space.

There is plenty of additional storage space located under the stairs.

The Area

The apartment lies in De Beauvoir, close to excellent pubs, including the De Beauvoir Arms and the Scolt Head. Southgate Road is a short stroll away and home to the De Beauvoir Deli, Hector’s wine bar, and Sweet Thursday pizza. Wine bars Dan’s and Goodbye Horses (and its sister ice cream parlour, The Dreamery) are also within easy reach. De Beauvoir Square, with its beautiful rose garden, is a peaceful spot to sit and drink a coffee from nearby Batch Baby.

To the west is Dalston's Kingsland Road, home to a wealth of excellent bars, including Three Sheets, Brilliant Corners, and Mu alongside beloved bakery The Dusty Knuckle and neighbouring restaurant Acme Fire Cult. Other local favourites include the Arcola Theatre, The Duke of Richmond pub, restaurant Angelina, Little Duck The Picklery and Allpress.

Access to the Regent’s Canal path is 10 minutes away on foot, perfect for cycling and walking. Neighbourhood café Towpath is a local institution alongside child-friendly Japanese eatery Toconoco. Stalwart gallery Victoria Miro lies just beyond.

There is excellent access to public transport from the house. Dalston Junction (Windrush line) is a five-minute walk away, while Dalston Kingsland (Mildmay line) is 10 minutes from home. There are also round-the-clock bus services along Kingsland Road.
