About this property

The Glass Gallery, by Veeve

They say it's all a matter of perspective. For this design-led home, that means each room exhibits a different array of shapes and colours to draw your attention. Uniting slick interiors with striking artwork and an impeccably designed garden, it's akin to staying in a captivating modern art gallery. Tempting as it is to stay put, the buzz of Upper Islington Street is tantalisingly close by, whilst excellent transport links from Highbury and Islington station make this home ideal for jaunts into central London...

A little of this home's signature pizzazz is sprinkled everywhere here, spotlighting artistic flair against an effortlessly cool backdrop of modern interiors. The living room is a masterclass in contrasts, from its monochrome palette to its geometric patterns, fluid sculpture and curved lines. The well-equipped kitchen and atmospheric dining area are awash with light, thanks to ample use of glass and fresh tones.

On cosy evenings in, we'd suggest setting up camp in front of the TV, or, if it's a fancy home-cooked dinner you're hankering after, you can enjoy sitting under the stars in winter or invite in the fresh air with the patio doors wide open in summer. Upstairs, it's tricky to pick a favourite bedroom. With their light-filled interiors and vibrant accents, all five are equally inviting, whilst the bathrooms are an ode to chic contemporary design (with a special mention reserved for that wonderfully indulgent freestanding bath in the principal bathroom).

We Love
The garden, superbly set up for summer entertaining with its split-level terrace, al fresco dining table and sheltered seating area. We also can't resist mentioning the artwork – whether it’s playful sculpture, vivid prints or arresting paintings, there's something to inspire everyone here.

Home Truths:
No smoking, pets, or parties. Although we always endeavour for accuracy, there may be rare occasions where the listing photography and description do not provide an exact representation of the home’s amenities.

This is a stylish house that can easily accommodate a large group.
This is a stylish house that can easily accommodate a large group. The area around the house is wonderful—safe, trendy, lots of shops and restaurants. Inside, the house is clean and comfortable. This house is five floors, which can be tough if stairs are an issue.

A home away from home. We believe it can be something really special. We know that finding the perfect base from which to go out and explore - or stay in and recharge - can make a great vacation unforgettable. At Veeve, we've been committed to hand-selecting the very best homes in London and Paris since 2011. Our mission? To provide our guests with the ideal space to suit their needs; be it a family home in Kensington, a chic penthouse in Shoreditch, or a quirky loft in the Marais...
Our homes may vary in size, style and location, but the experience we offer - seamless and curated - always stays the same. Whichever home you choose, our team of experts are bursting with insider knowledge on the local area. We love to make recommendations, so why not give us a call?

Why they chose this property

A quiet North London enclave neighbouring trendy Stoke Newington, Highbury still has a lot to offer for those who enjoy leafy strolls in one of the neighbourhood’s green open spaces, like Highbury Fields or Barnard Park. End your stroll in one of Highbury’s many charming pubs, or head out to one of the capital’s finest music venues, Union Chapel. A Grade I listed gothic revival church, the acoustics were originally designed to show off the chapel’s magnificent church organ and choir – which lends itself rather nicely to hosting some fantastic concerts, and has seen some legendary performances from the likes of Bjorn, Townes Van Zandt, and Susanne Vega.

What makes this property unique
