Georgian homes to be recreated in Islington

Property-seekers looking for a home with the wow-factor are invited to view an exclusive development in one of London’s most desirable enclaves.

The Colebrooke Collection is a unique development blending handsome Georgian architecture with state-of-the-art design and comprises just nine townhouses and two apartments close to Regent’s Canal, and the fashionable shops and restaurants of Upper Street in Islington.

Fronting onto Colebrooke Row, the trio of four/five-bedroom Georgian townhouses offer exceptional living space and flexibility over five floors, and boast a self-contained area on the top floor – perfect for a nanny or as a guest suite.

The six contemporary townhouses are set back from Colebrooke Row, and re-interpret the traditional style, embracing the use of light and space. Five are three-storey, three-bedroom homes with magnificent master suites, while the final house is a delightful two-storey, two-bedroom design.

Finally, and offering superb flexibility for those seeking city living, the two apartments with their exquisite Georgian frontage have amazing panache. The one-bedroom design with spacious living accommodation is a perfect base in the capital, while the second is a supremely stylish duplex offering a choice of two or three bedrooms.

Each new home will be individually styled to a superb specification by leading interior design expert Tessa Ashley Miller. The elegant kitchens will feature handle-free units, seamless Corian worktops and sinks, and state-of-the-art appliances.

Within the townhouses, the kitchen occupies the lower ground floor; a generous and welcoming space opening to the dining areas and to the patio and raised garden.

A more formal living room is found on the ground floor, the perfect place for relaxing in sumptuous surroundings or entertaining family and friends.

Bathrooms are characterised by clean, uncluttered lines creating a fresh background for strong focal points – beautiful freestanding Alessi baths and sculptured basins with stylish chrome taps and fittings.

Selected townhouses also boast a galleried bathroom to the master suite, with spacious Signorini double shower and sleek Corian walls and floors.
