2 bedroom flat for sale

Architecturally Distinct Georgian Maisonette with Garden Terraces in Barnsbury. Description Set within an elegant Georgian building on Duncan Terrace, this beautifully refurbished three-bedroom maisonette occupies the ground and lower ground floors, offering a carefully considered balance of period character and modern design. The raised ground floor forms the heart of the home, with a sleek, modern kitchen leading directly onto a raised terrace, with steps down to a further private courtyard below. The striking double reception room is enhanced by exceptionally large sash windows that flood the space with natural light. The proportions are particularly impressive, while a refined, contemporary finish creates a calm and adaptable living environment. To the rear, a visually stunning bow wall, a distinctive architectural feature unique to a small number of homes on the terrace, adds both character, space and a sense of individuality. The maisonette has been sensitively renovated and redesigned by architect Jack Gell in 2025 with a strong focus on natural materials and harmonious design. The lower ground floor in particular was reconfigured to improve layout, enhance light and add comfort. A third bedroom, currently arranged as a study, sits on this level and has been thoughtfully designed with bespoke joinery, incorporating fitted storage, a built-in desk and direct access to the lower terrace, making it an ideal work-from-home space. This level also comprises two generous double bedrooms, including a principal suite with en suite shower room, alongside a well-appointed family bathroom. All joinery on this floor is bespoke, introducing warmly stained oak and woven rattan. The bathrooms are further enhanced by traditional quarry tiles from Ketley Brick, chosen for their texture and natural tones. This floor reads as a warm space that beautifully balances the light filled living space on the raised ground floor.
