## Description

Situated on the highly sought-after Elfort Road in the heart of Highbury, we are delighted to present to the market, this attractive three-bedroom period house which offers well-proportioned accommodation, a private rear garden and considerable scope for further development.

Carefully maintained by the existing owners for over 50 years, the property retains a wealth of period character alongside thoughtful improvements, creating a home with excellent bones and a wonderful, homely feel.

The ground floor provides two well-proportioned reception rooms and a generous kitchen. The front reception is nicely appointed and features, a new picture rail, original coving, an ornate ceiling rose and bespoke wooden sash windows, replaced in a style sympathetic to the original architecture. The second reception provides further flexible living or dining space, while the large rear kitchen offers an excellent sociable setting for everyday life and entertaining. There is also potential to extend this internal space further (subject to PP)
Upstairs are three bedrooms and a family bathroom. The principal bedroom benefits from bespoke sash windows and recently plastered walls, while the two further bedrooms have double-glazed windows. The bathroom was refurbished within the last ten years and features a skylight.

Significant works have been carried out over many years, including replacement roof, damp-proof course, loft insulation, rewiring and replacement plumbing. The boiler was replaced within the last decade, with new radiators and copper pipework installed throughout. The private rear garden provides a peaceful outdoor space with direct sunlight during the day, creating a sheltered microclimate ideal for growing plants, while the property also offers excellent scope for future extensions, subject to the necessary consents, with potential to extend into the loft, basement, and side return.
The front has been enhanced with a bespoke door and period-appropriate tessellated tiling, while the hallway has been replastered and redecorated.

The property is set on a fully residential road in the heart of Highbury, with the layout of the street giving it a quiet, almost cul-de-sac feel with low levels of passing traffic, and is perfectly set for easy access to local amenities.
The well renowned Highbury Barn is within easy reach and offers a selection of cafes and independent shops including Da Marios Deli, Godfreys butchers, Highbury fishmongers and La Fromagerie. The bars, restaurants and high street shops on Upper Street are also close by, and the property also benefits from a fantastic array of transport links.

Arsenal offers the closest underground links on the Piccadilly line whilst over ground services and the Victoria line are facilitated from Finsbury Park and Drayton Park which offers a weekday service to Moorgate. Numerous bus routes offer effortless access to Angel, the City and West End whilst international links are facilitated from St Pancras.
