A superlative three-storey contemporary house of great architectural ingenuity designed by the acclaimed architects Buschow Henley. The house is finished to the very highest standard throughout, and boasts large picture windows that maximise natural light, larch floors, full-height glass doors onto a sunny garden, and off-street parking. It is situated at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac close to the shops and restaurants of Islington and Stoke Newington.

The house is one of a pair of private residences by Buschow Henley built on the site of three derelict terraced houses. Original bricks salvaged from the demolition have been used to form the new street façade. The rear elevation is clad in black-stained timber boarding with timber-framed glazing.

Internally, the house benefits from two exceptional living spaces. On the ground floor is an open-plan kitchen, dining room and reception room with doors onto the garden, while the entire top floor is taken up by a spectacular 32ft double-aspect main reception room, with doors onto a terrace for enjoying the setting sun. The middle floor houses two bedrooms and a bathroom, and is accessed via a concealed staircase.

Established in 1995, Buschow Henley is one of Britain’s most exciting architectural practices. Past projects include offices for Talkback Productions and a mixed-use scheme on Shepherdess Walk for the Manhattan Loft Corporation, both of which were winners of RIBA Awards for Architecture.
