This three-window-wide Neo-Georgian terrace home has been reimagined by award-winning architects THISS Studio. A complete back-to-brick renovation has breathed new life into the two-storey house, which sits on one of Canonbury’s most sought-after roads. An exploration of raw materials and purposeful design has resulted in a home well-suited to a variety of lifestyles.

A manicured front garden is a welcoming arrival, leading to a traditional white-panelled front door that opens into an impressive entrance hallway. Here, a floating oak staircase takes centre stage. Natural oak panelling provides a minimalist aesthetic and hints at the meticulous care and attention taken throughout the refurbishment.

The ground floor unfolds into three distinct yet connected spaces, unified by bespoke oak joinery. Cleverly integrated, a mix of hidden and open storage adds has been designed to maximise function and flow.

To the front of the house, a pair of sash windows flood the room with natural light, which bounces softly off European white oak flooring. A striking green terrazzo fireplace anchors the space, housing a log-burning stove, while oak-panelled doors conceal a media station above.

At the heart of the home sits a bespoke kitchen by Reform CPH. Soft-closing, anthracite aluminium units contrast beautifully with stainless steel countertops. Gaggenau appliances blend seamlessly into the cabinetry, and a large kitchen island incorporates a Bora downdraft extractor while doubling as a social hub for entertaining. Hidden behind concertina doors, a custom-built Oak pantry adds both luxury and practicality. Opposite, a low-level bench offers an informal space to unwind or converse between zones.

A rear extension features four full-length glass ceiling panels, ushering in abundant natural light from its westerly aspect. Slimline black Maxlight doors frame uninterrupted views of the garden, extending the living space outdoors.

Mature trees and planting create a serene, peaceful setting, while a wood-panelled gate opens to a discreet passageway leading to the garage. While designed to be low-maintenance, the garden's aspect makes it an ideal canvas for cultivating a lush, wild haven.

Also on the ground floor is a guest shower room and WC, continuing the home’s thoughtful layout.

Upstairs, the first floor hosts three double bedrooms, each with sash windows overlooking either the tranquil road or garden. The principal bedroom sits at the front, enhanced by bespoke oak wardrobes and bedside tables. Low-level fluted oak panelling completes the room, offering a warm and restful retreat.

The family bathroom is finished with grey terrazzo tiling and matching tadelakt across the walls and ceiling. Matte black sanitaryware complements the roll-top bath, rain shower and modern basin. Additional built-in storage rounds out the space.

The garage is located in a lane behind the home. While there is access direct from the rear of the garden, an up-and-over door at the front provides a rare opportunity to securely park.
