The area of Angel and Islington is a thriving, up-and-coming hub in North London that attracts a myriad of companies due to the eclectic and dynamic atmosphere it provides. Near to popular Old Street and trendy Hoxton, and located on the outskirts of the financial district, Angel and Islington offer numerous smaller, bespoke serviced office business centres at more competitive rates than neighbouring areas.
The area is also rich in history; it was originally an overnight stop for cattle and their owners on the way to Smithfield Market. Angel and Islington’s pubs and inns have expanded greatly from these early days; the area is now packed with buzzing restaurants, bars, and entertainment venues, though it still retains much of its old world charm on cobbled boulevards brimming with cafes, boutiques and specialty shops.
The charm of the area coupled with the wealth of facilities on offer make the area very attractive to a wide variety of companies. The excellent local transport links and easy accessibility of the area add to its desirability as a serviced office location. Commercial property in this area is set apart from the surrounding boroughs because it houses few chain serviced office operators. Smaller serviced office spaces in more bespoke buildings tend to dominate the market. That said, larger spaces in professional, upmarket buildings do also come onto the market from time to time, but are quickly snapped up as they offer better value for money than nearby Liverpool Street.
Companies that wish to have a non-branded, personal feel to their office space would benefit from taking serviced office space in Angel and Islington. Prices range from £250 to £600 per person per month, depending on the customer requirement, and the style of serviced office space selected. There are also several non-serviced and shared space options in this area, with prices ranging from £125 to £400 per person per month. Angel and Islington offer a variety of offices ranging from one-person spaces for start-up companies to larger premises that accommodate small to medium-sized businesses. Either way, serviced offices in the area are ideal for businesses that want to create an office space with a personal atmosphere.
