Features and description
- Two-bedroom Apartment
- Well-maintained Low-rise Block
- Practical Layout
- Excellent Location
Tucked away on a quiet no-through road in the heart of Canonbury, this two-bedroom apartment enjoys a peaceful setting just moments from the tranquil New River Walk. Situated on the first floor of a well-maintained, low-rise block and surrounded by landscaped communal gardens, the flat offers a sense of calm and seclusion that’s rare for such a central location. A private balcony provides outdoor space, while both Highbury Fields and Clissold Park are within easy walking distance.
Originally built in 1958 to house police officers, Abbotts Close has since been converted into private residences. The development sits in a prime Canonbury location, combining a village-like atmosphere with superb access to local amenities and transport links.
The apartment benefits from windows on all four sides, drawing in natural light throughout the day. The dual-aspect living room enjoys views of the surrounding treetops, while the main bedroom also receives abundant sunlight and opens directly onto the balcony via a glazed door.
The layout is practical and well-proportioned. Though the interiors have not been recently modernised, the flat remains a blank canvas with great potential. The kitchen features a combination of cabinetry and worktops, with a large window overlooking the communal gardens.
The second bedroom offers flexibility and could serve equally well as a home office or guest room.
A private balcony, accessible from both the living room and main bedroom, overlooks the mature communal gardens—an ideal spot for morning coffee or unwinding in the evening. The property benefits from two additional external storage cupboards and off street parking.
The landscaped gardens that surround Abbotts Close are beautifully maintained, with lawns, mature trees, and thoughtfully planted borders, creating a quiet retreat within the city.
The apartment is a short walk from the shops, restaurants and cafes of Upper Street, Canonbury, and Dalston. Nearby favourites include Ottolenghi, twentytwentyone, The Canonbury Tavern, Primeur, and Jolene, as well as independent boutiques and local markets. The De Beauvoir Deli and Vins wine bar are also close at hand.
New River Walk, just around the corner, provides a leafy escape along a historic waterway. Highbury Fields and Clissold Park are both nearby, offering expansive green space, tennis courts, cafes, and playgrounds.
Transport links are excellent: Highbury & Islington station (Victoria Line and Overground) provides fast access to central London; Essex Road station offers direct trains to Moorgate; and Canonbury Overground connects easily to East and South London.
