About this apartment rental

Tucked away in a peaceful corner of London, this beautifully designed home is your perfect sanctuary from the city's hustle and bustle. The bright and airy living room, with its tasteful décor and large bay windows, invites you to relax with a good book or catch up on your favourite shows. The fully equipped kitchen opens onto a lovely garden, ideal for enjoying your morning coffee or indulging in an al fresco meal.
This unique flat spans multiple levels, adding to its undeniable charm. As you enter, two flights of stairs guide you downwards. On the first floor, you'll find the spacious living areas, perfect for unwinding in comfort. The second floor reveals a versatile third bedroom or study, along with a modern bathroom, kitchen, and direct access to the serene garden. The third floor is dedicated to the tranquil first and second bedrooms, offering a restful retreat after a day of exploring London.

Conveniently located, the flat is just a 10-minute stroll or a short ride on the 210 bus from Finsbury Park Station, and a 10-minute walk or quick hop on the 341 or 141 bus from Manor House Station. This prime location ensures effortless connections to the rest of London. Essential amenities, including Brewed Cafe for some of the best coffee in London, Armstrong Pharmacy and Travel Clinic, Sainsbury's Local, and Gurbet Supermarket & Butcher, are all just a one-minute walk away on Green Lanes. Clissold Park, also just a minute's walk from your door, offers tennis and basketball courts, a playground and splash park for kids, and even a small menagerie with deer, goats, and birds.
When it comes to things to do nearby, you're spoiled for choice. The vibrant Finsbury Park is just a short walk away, offering beautiful green spaces, a boating lake, and plenty of activities for all ages. For a taste of local culture, head to the nearby Park Theatre or enjoy a concert at Alexandra Palace. If you’re in the mood for some shopping, the trendy boutiques and markets of Stoke Newington Church Street are within easy reach, as are the unique charms of Highbury, Stroud Green, and Crouch End. For a more dynamic atmosphere, Islington's Upper Street is not far, where you can enjoy a mix of high-end shops, restaurants, and bars.
For those with an active lifestyle, you're in for a treat. Nearby, you'll find the West Reservoir, perfect for open-water swimming or even taking a yoga class by the water. If climbing is your passion, London’s largest climbing centre, The Castle, is just around the corner. This impressive venue, set within a striking Victorian water pumping station, can be admired from the flat. For a quieter experience, visit Abney Park Cemetery, one of London's "Magnificent Seven" garden cemeteries, offering serene walks among nature and history. Don’t miss the Parkland Walk, London’s longest linear nature reserve, which provides a green corridor for walking or jogging, stretching from Finsbury Park to Alexandra Palace.
Whether you're here for business or pleasure, this flat offers the perfect base for exploring all that London has to offer or simply unwinding after a busy day. We look forward to welcoming you!
