Islington

Clean lines, symmetry, panoramic windows and smooth parquet floors combine to create an enlightened atmosphere in the open-plan living and kitchen space. This soulful home works overtime to deliver an ambient mood, with music lovers likely to be drawn to the decks and sound system and bibliophiles ably served by the graceful mid-century furniture that adorns the refined reading corner. An astute use of zoning really ensures this space shines, with a capacious modern kitchen subtly separated yet harmoniously at one with the wider living area.

Lined with a statement bookshelf, the hallway summons you towards the sophisticated principal bedroom. Effortlessly soothing with a large double bed and relaxed seating area, the exalted views from the balcony instantly capture your interest (keener eyes will also note the direct access ...). Further along the hallway, the bathroom is the epitome of contemporary cool, refined in its natural stone tile effect, offering an inviting bath and built-in shower.

Tempted to squeeze in a shopping trip or two during your stay? The ample storage space here may tip the balance in favour of a whistlestop tour of London’s many high-end retail destinations. Excellent transport links from nearby Islington and Angel offer you plenty of leeway when it comes to inspiration, although we thoroughly recommend combining it with a stop off in the foodie heartland of nearby Dalston before you start splurging...
