Surrounded by characterful pubs and fine eateries, this home is nestled between the lively neighbours of Islington and Dalston. The open-plan living area has plenty of space and natural light, especially for a flat – thanks, in part, to skylights and bi-fold doors allowing sunlight to bounce off the white walls. When the weather is nice, the terraces and garden beckon, offering perfect spots for a glass of wine after exploring the city. And for the drizzly days that London is a little more known for, we can't imagine anything better than turning on the underfloor heating and curling up on the sofa with a cup of tea.

Home truths:
*There may be steps at the entrance to this home, and there are stairs leading to the raised garden terrace. It might not be suitable for those with limited mobility. *Parking may be available here. However, driving in London can be tricky, so we recommend sticking to the easily accessible public transport where possible. That said, we think the best way to see the city is on foot. *This is a central area, so noise is to be expected. *This flat is part of a terraced home. The entrance may be shared with other guests, and there's a chance you'll see and hear your neighbours during your stay.
