Beautiful 1 bed flat - Islington Angel area
Newly restored flat in a 170 year old Victorian house in a fantastic area from which to explore all of London - or just the best bits - all of which are nearby.<br /><br /><b>The space</b><br />Welcome to your home from home.  It’s a lovely quiet flat in an early-Victorian townhouse in a conservation area of London's trendy Islington.<br /><br />You’ll be within a 1 minute walk to 5 different bus routes, a 5 minute walk to Essex Road Rail Station, 7 minute walk to Canonbury Overground, 15 minutes walk (or 5 minutes by bus) to Angel Underground, or to Highbury & Islington.  Best of all though, despite the ease of leaving the area, you’ll probably want to spend time in the neighbourhood, as you have the vibrant restaurants, shops and pubs of Upper Street in a ten minute walk, and up and coming Dalston within 15 minutes walk in the opposite direction through historic De Beauvoir Town (which also has some fantastic English pubs).<br /><br />The patio area (with table, chairs and often the 
You will be in what I consider to be the best part of London. You'll be within 10 minutes by walking to Upper Street, with some of the best independent shops, restaurants and pubs in the UK. (Time Out calls it "Supper Street" due to the hundreds of independent restaurants, bars and cafes).  You can also go to the vibrant areas of Dalston (15 minutes walk) Shoreditch and Hoxton (15 minutes by either bus or Overground train). Essex Road (1 minute) also has some great pubs, for instance my local pub, the friendly "Lord Clyde" is great for food and a pub quiz on Monday evenings.  That said, the flat itself is on a quiet traffic calmed street. <br /><br />On Essex Road within 100 metres you’ll have a choice of Tesco and Sainsbury’s mini-supermarkets as well as many handy take-aways and restaurants (as well as a range of hipster cafes and greasy spoons for a 'Full English').  There's also a very good fish and chip shop if that's your thing.<br /><br />Parks like Highbury Fields (15 min walk)
Hello.  Thanks for looking at my flat.  I guess since I won't be there when you stay, you don't want to spend too much time reading about me.  But I'm an outdoorsy sort of person, with a restless wanderlust (after all I'll probably be travelling when you stay).  I used to be a teacher of History and Politics, now I'm a freelancer doing all sorts of things from observing elections around the world to writing novels.  That said, I love being at home in London too (so please look after both my home and London!) and always miss my washing machine when I'm travelling (so give it a hug from me when you visit).

Cheers!
