This handsome Grade II-listed, late-Georgian house lies on the coveted raised terrace of Wilmington Square in Clerkenwell. Wilmington Square is one of the earliest developments in the area and is regarded as one of its most important and historic squares.
This four-bedroom house has been renovated but also beautifully preserved; almost all original chimney pieces are still in place, as are windows, shutters and panelled casements, plus cupboards, cornicing and pitch pine floorboards. Incredibly peaceful for such a central location, the house has no road to the immediate fore — and therefore no traffic — and looks directly out to the verdant square.
Laid out over four levels, the south-facing house extends to over 2,350 sq. ft internally. There is a courtyard garden on two-levels (lower ground and ground floor).
The house is positioned in the left-centre of the terrace and built from yellow stock brick laid in Flemish bond, with banded stucco on the ground floor and stucco dressings. There are two cast-iron Juliet balconies on the first floor and original iron spear railings with urn finials at street level. At the entrance is a beautiful neo-classical doorcase with an arched fanlight, which is supported by a slim architrave and recessed fluted half-columns.
The property is located within the London Borough of Islington New River Conservation Area. The terrace dates from approximately 1830 and was listed (grade II) in 1972.
Clerkenwell, in the south-west of the borough of Islington, has a long history and retains much of its medieval street pattern and function. The area originally developed as an adjunct to the Roman City, hosting a range of activities that were not permitted within the city walls including livestock markets, metalworks, breweries and monasteries. In the 17th century Clerkenwell became famous as a resort where Londoners came to enjoy its spas, tea gardens and theatres.
