All the listed amenities are no more than 5 minutes away making it so convenient and precious for us.

What makes us different from other local areas is that we have absolutely everything available locally: gp, post office, train station, bus stops, supermarkets, off-licences, takeaway shops, pubs. All the listed amenities are no more than 5 minutes away making it so convenient and precious for us. It is also very suitable for children as we have a park just across our house specially for kids with slides, swings and football pitch.

Transport

Travelling is amazing, i live across an overground train station, 2 bus stops. Rush hour has never been an issue to me, who goes work every day during rush hour. However, the bus times can be an issue, if you miss the 236, it takes about 10-15 minutes for another one to arrive which can be inconvenient. There’s also many bus stops a few minutes walk away that go to several routes, ie manor house, finsbury park, dalston, stoke newington.

Community

My street consists of all families, they are all so friendly and am very close with majority of my neighbours! We are all so diverse which is great. Parking is also very convenient, we have private parking available for our flats, also parking available on the streets.

Amenities

I am so grateful to be living in an area where we have 2 local shops, a pub, post office, supermarkets, takeaway shops just 5 minutes away from me! It is so convenient, i live a few steps away from a train station with bus stops just across my house. There are many amenities available all over my area making our lives so much easier. The local shops offer good quality products whilst markets provide the best and exotic fruits! The train station very useful and go to many areas. Variety of take away shops. Although I live just by a pub, I have never had an issue with noise, always respectful yet cheerful people around and in the pub. We have been living in this area for 15 years and certainly will not choose any other area than here.

Great choice cafes and restaurants

Up and coming and great for young families. I love the range of amenities and the new cafes have really raised the profile of the area.

Transport

Around Newington Green, there’s a great choice of bus routes. 21 starts and stops at the Green which takes you through Old Street, Margate and down to London Bridge and beyond. 73 straight through to Oxford Circus and 476 to Kings Cross. The buses are so frequent there’s always an option that is not too busy (even during rush hour). Canonbury Ocerground station is approx 6 minutes walk from Newington Green and then there’s also Dalston Kingsland which is equidistant. Night buses also pass through (N21 and N73) quite regularly.

Community

A combination of resident and visitor parking is available, usually with good availability (even on match days). Refuse collection is regular and on time and Islington council are responsive to their clean streets app. If you see dog fouling, report it via the app and they’ll come and clean it. Streets are well lit and well maintained. Seldom do we experience anti-social behaviour as it’s mostly families who live in the vicinity.

Amenities

Newington Green has some amazing food outlets - Perilla (on the corner of Green Lanes) for high end dining, Acoustic Brasserie for a superb brunch (try the Menemen - you will not be disappointed!) and then there’s Lizzy’s on the Green, and Jolene for a superb tasting coffee and cakes. Fancy Italian? There’s Trattoria. How about Natural Wines? We’ve got that too - check out Yield N16. Newington Green itself is lovely in the summer. There’s ample green space to sit and relax, have a picnic or just soak up the buzz around you. The children’s play area is fenced off so it’s safe for children. Just off the green, there’s hair salons galore, barber shops, newsagents, cafes off-licences, fruit and veggies and a laundrette.
