Some properties have a living space. This one has a loving space - the lower ground floor has been opened up to create a room far larger than you'd ever guess from the pavement, made for long dinners, lazy Sundays and the kind of entertaining that ends later than planned. It flows straight out onto a private rear patio for when the party (or the tomato plants) need air.

Gerrard Road sits within the Duncan Terrace and Colebrooke Row conservation area - a quiet, handsome pocket of Angel that has long been one of Islington's most desirable addresses. A historic, central pocket of London that still feels like a village, with the Regent's Canal towpath around two minutes' walk at the end of the street via Danbury Street bridge, while Angel station (Zone 1, Northern line) is a five-minute walk, with Upper Street, Camden Passage and the Almeida and Sadler's Wells theatres all close at hand.

Practicalities, because they matter: Generous storage under the stairs by the front door, a separate cupboard housing the washing machine, and efficient modern gas central heating keeping the whole place warm without fuss.

Upstairs, a mid-floor bathroom leads on to two beautiful bedrooms, each with built-in wardrobes and its own decorative period fireplace - the kind of detail people spend fortunes trying to fake.

A classic London period property in a location that sells itself. A great place to live, a sound place to invest, and - genuinely - a space to love.
