Dating back to 1824, this substantial Georgian home is located on arguably the most sought-after address in Clerkenwell: Myddelton Square. Rich in character, with grand proportions and a wealth of fine decorative period features, this handsome home offers impressive kerb appeal.
The inviting entrance hall boasts great ceiling height, original coving and a beautifully preserved staircase with a sweeping balustrade. Set to the left of this is a splendid dual-aspect kitchen/dining room. The dining area, positioned at the front of the house, enjoys pretty views across the mature trees and the north end of Myddelton Square through a large arched sash window, which retains many of the original panes of glass. This elegant space also features original coving, an ornate ceiling rose, a feature fireplace with period surround, high skirting, parquet flooring, and original wooden room dividers. To the rear of the property is the kitchen which overlooks an attractive south-facing garden, where mature trees and shrubs create a wonderfully private oasis. The kitchen is fitted with cream cabinets, which are complemented by granite worktops that provide generous workspace, as well as tiled flooring and fully integrated appliances. A useful cloakroom sits at the rear of the raised ground floor.
The first floor comprises of a magnificent double reception room, filled with natural light from two floor to ceiling sash windows at the front, complete with a full-length balcony and original wrought iron railings, as well as a large south-facing sash window at the rear. The views from this room are truly wonderful over the treetops and fine Georgian homes found on the square, as well as onto St Mark’s Church. This superb entertaining space enjoys excellent ceiling height and is adorned with period details including intricate coving, ceiling roses, and a feature fireplace framed by an ornate Georgian mantelpiece. From the half-landing, a charming south-facing terrace offers an additional peaceful retreat with views across the neighbouring gardens.
The second floor hosts the principal bedroom suite, offering wonderful proportions and delightful views down Myddelton Square through two large sash windows. The principal bedroom also benefits from having the original coving and seamless flow into the dressing area, which continues into the generous en-suite bathroom. The top floor provides a large shower room and two further well-proportioned double bedrooms with the rear bedroom offering views over St Pauls Dome and The Shard. The lower ground floor features two additional bedrooms, kitchenet, bathroom and a utility room, access to the rear garden and the front vaults.
