Comprehensive Victorian Renovation and Extension in Ambler Road, N4

Location:Ambler Road, Finsbury Park, Islington, London N4 Project
Type: Full House Refurbishment, Rear Infill Extension, Ground Floor Remodelling

The Victorian terraced streets around Ambler Road, Finsbury Park (N4) represent some of North London's most desirable residential property. These homes—characterized by high ceilings and period features—offer tremendous potential for value uplift when modernized with precision and architectural vision.

Commissioned for a comprehensive renovation and ground-floor extension of this stunning N4 Victorian terrace. The project aimed to transform a compartmentalised, energy-inefficient layout into a bright, open-plan, and sophisticated family living space ready for the demands of 21st-century life.

Maximising Space and Light with a Finsbury Park Extension
The central feature of this full house refurbishment N4 was the rear infill extension. This complex structural work was designed to maximize the ground floor footprint while drawing significant natural light deep into the core of the home.

Structural Expertise: We executed the intricate structural elements required to completely open up the rear wall, incorporating expansive full-width aluminium bi-fold doors. This created a seamless transition from the bespoke kitchen and dining area to the landscaped rear garden, fulfilling the ultimate ambition of open-plan living.

High-End Finishes:The project demanded premium internal finishes, including underfloor heating throughout the ground floor, engineered timber flooring, and the installation of a designer kitchen with integrated, high-specification appliances.

The Full House Renovation N4 Scope
Beyond the Finsbury Park extension, our team managed the ground floor upgrade to ensure consistency and longevity. The Victorian terrace renovation scope included:

Full Interior Ground Floor Remodelling: Relocation and refitting of the ground-floor utility spaces, storage cupboard and work space.

Front and rear garden renovation.

Mechanical & Electrical (M&E) Upgrade: A overhaul of the electrics and plumbing, including energy-efficient smart lighting and a new heating system, significantly improving the property’s EPC rating. This is a crucial element for any house renovation N4 today.
