Covering Highbury
Highbury sits 3 miles north of London, with Islington 1 miles to the south and Holloway 1 miles to the west.
Homes in London
London projects often mean working on period terraces with neighbours on both sides, tight access through the house and conservation area controls, so careful planning and party wall work matter as much as the build.
