Barnsbury is a popular area of Islington, positioned between Angel and King's Cross. There are several weekend food markets within walking distance for fresh independent produce and excellent health food shops on Caledonian Road. The house is also positioned only moments from SUNDAY, a neighbourhood favourite for brunch and coffee.
King's Cross and Coal Drops Yard are also within easy reach; the recently redeveloped space is home to a magnificent public square with choreographed fountains and restaurants, including Caravan, Vinoteca, Dishoom, Granger and Co, plus A.P.C, COS, Margaret Howell and Wolf and Badger.
Nearby Upper Street offers a wealth of retail, culinary and design amenities, including Ottolenghi, Gail's, Le Creuset, Space NK and twentytwentyone, as well as a host of national and independent retailers and restaurants. Two of the best pubs in the area for food and wine, The Drapers Arms and The Albion are within walking distance from the house, as is The Tamil Prince.
Green space is provided by nearby Thornhill Square, Barnsbury Square, Barnard Park, and Highbury Fields, slightly further afield, which has tennis courts, a playground and a swimming pool.
The closest transport links are from Caledonian Road and Barnsbury Overground, and access to the Piccadilly Line is provided at Caledonian Road, a short walk to the west. The Underground and rail network are also within easy walking distance at Highbury and Islington station (Victoria Line), and Angel (Northern line). King's Cross/St Pancras International Station is reachable on foot, by bus, or one stops away on the Victoria or Piccadilly line for the Eurostar.
