Canonbury Square

Islington's most premier address, a Grade II Listed three window wide period home overlooking a garden square.

Positioned on one of the most sought-after garden squares in Islington, this Georgian home perfectly blends contemporary practicality with period grandeur and charm. A three-window wide home with ample lateral space, totalling circa 4,500 sq ft across five floors, with four bedrooms, multiple reception rooms and two to three bathrooms.

The lower ground floor is home to the Bulthaup kitchen, finished in steel with kitchen island, Gaggenau appliances, expansive pantry and Crittall doors opening onto the rear garden. The glass roof floods the floor with natural light. A utility room and WC are positioned towards the front of the floor, alongside an additional bedroom or reception room with bespoke cabinetry, ideal as a nanny or guest suite.
