10 best places to live in Holloway

Holloway’s story is one of renewal and regeneration. It’s turned itself from a rundown, cramped and underrated part of Islington into a true up-and-comer. Change is happening quickly here, so finding the best places to live in Holloway will require some expert insight. To make life easier for you, we’ve put together the top 10 property developments in Holloway, as rated by the people who live there. Read on, and find out what makes Holloway worth a closer look.

Where is Holloway?

Holloway makes up a large swathe of central north London. Part of the borough of Islington, it sits between the more affluent areas of Highbury and Highgate. This puts Holloway in Zone 2 for TfL services and the A1 runs almost directly through the heart of it.

Living in Holloway

Holloway used to be known for all the wrong reasons. It used to be chiefly associated with the notorious women’s prison HMP Holloway. Not to mention that the area was bisected by a major road.

Today, Holloway has much brighter prospects. The prison has closed, with the land being turned into 1000 new homes by 2026. The arrival of Arsenal Football Club’s Emirates Stadium has pumped millions into the community, and development is still going strong.

Alongside the smart rows of Victorian terraced houses, luxury apartment blocks and compounds are spring up. This is bringing more of a need for smart shops, restaurants and other amenities. The best cafes Holloway can muster are now a fair sight better than just five or so years ago!

At its heart, Holloway is still a buzzing place with lots going on. Gentrification is smoothing off some rough ends, but there’s still plenty of character to be found across the area.

Average property prices in Holloway

There’s a good mix of property to hold your interest in Holloway. The smart new developments sit alongside less pricey segments that nearby Highbury and Highgate can’t really offer. The Victorian terraced houses are still some of north London’s most affordable living options, with many being turned into flats.

Altogether, this creates a huge range of price options to buy and rent in Holloway. Everything from £200,000 flats to £3.5 million mansions are on offer. The average property price at the moment is around £725,000, but this doesn’t fully describe the property picture. You’ll have to dive in and see what can be found for your budget.

If you’re looking to rent in Holloway, expect to pay about £500 per week. This is almost 12% below the London average.

10 best places to live in Holloway

Now it’s time to see what HomeViews reviewers have to say about Holloway’s new property prospects today. The following list is based purely on their feedback about their own homes, in the form of 1-5-star rankings.

If you see anything that strikes your interest, click on it. This will take you to a dedicated page that will contain a full list of all the reviews, comments and further details about the property.
