Pared Back Interiors and Light-Filled Spaces in a London Apartment
This charming two-bedroom apartment is located on the ground floor of a brick-fronted Victorian townhouse in the Islington area of London. The house has a calm interior created with a neutral palette of Farrow and Ball whites and a recently sanded and finished reclaimed timber parquet flooring.
A unique feature of this apartment is the glass wall and ceiling in the living room, which looks out over the private, spacious patio garden and floods the space with natural light.

You can enter the home via the kitchen or through the sliding glass doors in the living room. The former conservatory is now transformed into a beautiful dining area.
The living room is decorated in a minimalistic style and centered around a wood burner flanked by built-in bookcases.
As mentioned, the kitchen also open to the patio, so there is a great connection with the outdoors in the apartment. The small kitchen has light timber cabinets paired with simple white tiles and black fittings.
The interiors may be contemporary, but the wooden ceiling beam shows the age of the apartment.
The master bedroom features a sash window with wooden shutters that offers a view of the front garden from one of the neighbors. The herringbone floor adds character to the space.
The small bathroom features a new Japanese-style bath, large light gray plate floor tiles, and black fittings.
All the living spaces open up to the patio, which makes it a great extension of living space in the summer months. The trees, plants, and brick wall make this patio extremely private.
The apartment is listed for £795,000 at The Modern House.
