City Garden Row, Angel N1

A stunning Islington penthouse offering bright, design-led living with a superb open-plan kitchen/reception room, wraparound decking, impressive views towards city road basin and an exceptional amount of natural light throughout. This part-furnished flat also benefits from two bedrooms, contemporary finishes and a standout position close to Regent’s Canal, Old Street and Angel. A BoConcept corner sofa is to be added. Available 14th May.

The entrance hall gives a neat and practical introduction to the flat, with a straightforward layout connecting the bedrooms, bathroom and main living space. The clean white finish and wood flooring set the tone for the bright, modern feel that runs throughout the property.

The kitchen/dining/reception room is the clear focal point of the flat and an exceptional living space. Spanning the full width of the property, it is filled with natural light from the extensive glazing and enjoys a strong connection to the surrounding terrace. There is ample room for separate seating and dining areas, and the views over the surrounding area and towards the canal give the room a real penthouse feel. The wraparound decking extends the living space beautifully, creating a rare sense of openness for a flat of this kind.

The kitchen is finished in a sleek contemporary style, with streamlined cabinetry, integrated appliances, a large island and generous worktop space. Its layout is both practical and striking, and the open design works particularly well with the dining and reception space, making it ideal for everyday living as well as entertaining.

The principal bedroom is a comfortable double room with wood flooring, fitted mirrored wardrobes and a clean contemporary finish. It also benefits from good natural light and a calm, uncluttered feel in keeping with the rest of the flat.

The second bedroom is also well presented and bright, with fitted storage and a pleasant outlook. It offers flexibility within the layout and complements the principal bedroom well.

The bathroom is finished in a modern style with a bath, overhead shower, wall-mounted basin and concealed storage. The neutral tiling and clean lines give it a smart, well-maintained appearance.

The wraparound terrace is a particularly impressive feature of the flat. Running around the outside of the property, they provide substantial private outside space with room for seating and planting, as well as open views across the surrounding rooftops, greenery and canal setting. This outside space adds a real sense of distinction and is a major part of what makes the property feel special.

For greenspace, the flat is well placed for nearby waterside walks along Regent’s Canal and City Road Basin, which the Canal & River Trust describes as one of London’s best-loved waterways, with towpaths and places to walk through Islington and beyond. The property is also close to Shoreditch Park, one of Hackney’s largest parks and a Green Flag site, offering a significant open green space nearby. Rosemary Gardens is another useful local park, with lawns, mature trees, sports facilities and a children’s play area.

For attractions, this part of Islington gives easy access to Sadler’s Wells, a world-leading dance venue in nearby Angel, and to the Barbican, one of London’s major cultural destinations for arts, cinema, music and events. The nearby City Road Basin also adds to the appeal of the area, offering a canal-side setting with a landscaped park and waterside character.

Amenities around the property are one of the area’s strongest points. The flat sits between the lively offer of Old Street and the broader retail, restaurant and café scene around Angel and Upper Street, while the canal-side and City Road Basin setting adds a more relaxed local character. This balance of everyday convenience, dining options and leisure appeal is a key part of living in this part of Islington.

Transport links are excellent. Old Street Underground Station is on the Northern line and also has National Rail services, while Angel Underground Station is also on the Northern line. Essex Road provides National Rail connections as well. Together these give the flat strong access across central London and beyond, with a wide range of bus routes also running around Old Street and City Road.
