Shoebox in Islington Zone 1

Richmond Avenue, N1: room with a door in a smart part of Islington

WHERE IT IS: Richmond Avenue is off Caledonian Road in the Barnsbury conservation area. Upper Street, with its array of shops, is within walking distance and Angel Tube station, on the Northern Line, is ten minutes’ walk.

UPSIDE: Your foot will be well and truly on the property ladder and in a very nice part of town. And with the spare change from £100,000 you could buy a car, thereby doubling your living space.

DOWNSIDE: High-risk prisoners get more room.

COST: £79,950

CONTACT: Hamptons, 020-7226 4688 www.hamptons.co.uk
