Our home

We offer a very large and beautiful family house in the middle of London. It is a traditional Victorian terraced house which is totally modernised and joined with the adjacent flat. We have 5 bedrooms, 4 bathrooms, 2 offices, a double reception room, our much loved open plan kitchen and dining room on the lower ground floor, leading to the playroom with lots of toys for our 2 little boys (5 and 2.5 yrs). The kitchen leads out to a large walled garden with a large BBQ, sand pit and trampoline for the kids.

We currently have a second house similar to ours a few doors down the road available for non-simultaneous swap during summer 2012 as well.

Who we are

We are a busy typical London family of 5 (my husband, me, our two sons of 2.5yrs and 5 yrs and our live-in nanny). We both are management consultants and have been living in London for the last 12 years. We love travelling, wine and dine, theatres & shows, museums and would leave you with a whole bunch of recommendations to experience the real London.

Where is it?

Your neighbourhood

Ideally located in Islington, North London it gives easy access to Central London (Piccadilly Circus is 10min on the tube, closest station 'Arsenal' is 8 min walk) while being situated in a suburban 'real London' area with beautiful parks, great restaurants, pubs and shopping.
