An exceptional opportunity to purchase a handsome, Grade II listed semi-detached freehold home, tucked away in a quiet cul-de-sac in the heart of Barnsbury and benefitting from a remarkably long rear garden of around 81 ft. <br/>The property offers generous, versatile accommodation and depending on the owners' requirements could span from a three to a six-bedroom house. The ground floor, beginning with an impressive entrance hall adorned with ornate coving and corbels, is dominated by a splendid double reception room, rich in period character with decorative coving, two feature fireplaces and two ceiling roses. To the rear sits the kitchen, which opens directly onto the expansive garden a true rarity for the area. The lower level provides two reception rooms/bedrooms and a shower room, while the first-floor hosts two substantial bedrooms, including a grand front room showcasing beautiful original details, plus a further double bedroom/office on the rear split level. The top floor is devoted to the principal bedroom and a family bathroom. Overall, the house presents a wonderful canvas for extension and modernisation, with planning being granted for a single storey infill extension to the lower ground floor and conversion of the split-level room into a bathroom planning application reference number P2025/0495/FUL. <br/>College Cross is a highly sought-after address, perfectly balancing tranquillity with immediate access to the lively scene of Upper Street. Popular local favourites such as The Albion and The Drapers Arms are close by, and everyday amenities including Waitrose and Sainsbury's can be found near Angel at the southern end of Liverpool Road. Excellent transport connections are available from Highbury & Islington (Victoria Line and National Rail) and Angel Underground (Northern Line), offering swift links into the City and throughout London.
