The final penthouse in a converted Edwardian
development in north London was revealed on Friday with a price tag of £4.3
million (US$5.6 million).
The three-bedroom, four-bathroom penthouse has a
private rooftop garden with an infinity pool, plus far-reaching views of the
city. It’s one of 11 penthouses in the landmarked mixed-used development
Islington Square, nine of which sold this summer, according to Galliard Homes,
the agency handling sales for the project.
“Islington Square has become a top address
offering luxury homes set amongst a fantastic collection of retail and leisure
amenities,” David Galman, sales director at Galliard Homes, said in a statement.
“The initial launch of the penthouse collection has seen significant sales
success, and we are anticipating high demand for the final penthouse
available.”
The 2,173-square-foot penthouse boasts an
open-living area with glass doors that lead to a private terrace, according to
the listing. It also features a custom kitchen by the Italian company
Valcucine.
The primary suite has a floor-to-ceiling
window, plus a dressing area and bathroom with a soaking tub, a marble wall and
steam shower. There are two additional bedroom suites.
The roof garden is on the upper level and is
accessed through a retractable glazed skylight. In addition to the pool, there
is also a deck, an outdoor dining area and lawn space.
Built on the site of the historic Royal Mail
sorting office, Islington Square was reimagined by London-based CZWG
Architects. The 170,000-square-foot development has a number of shopping,
dining and entertainment options, such as the ODEON Dine & Luxe cinema and
a Third Space health club.
“London is renowned for its mixed nature, and
that aspect of life in this city where people can live, work and play was a
fundamental part of the design behind Islington Square,” according to Jonathan
Goldstein, CEO of Cain International, the real estate investment firm behind
the project.
Amenities for residents include 24-hour
concierge service, underground parking and bicycle storage.
