Barnsbury is one of Islington's most desirable neighbourhoods. Grids of Georgian and Victorian terraces surround quiet garden squares. Barnsbury Wood is a hidden nature reserve. The area has a genuine village feel despite being in Zone 2. Bars and restaurants on Liverpool Road and Richmond Grove give it evening life. Housing is expensive, with period properties commanding premium prices. Families move here for the primary schools and the quality of the housing stock. It's quiet, green, and very well connected.
