This ground-floor one-bedroom flat sits within an attractive Victorian/Georgian-style building on Dartmouth Park Hill, offered chain free and ready for immediate occupation. The reception room is generous for the size, the kitchen is separate and modern, and sash-style windows provide excellent natural light throughout. At about 520 sq ft the accommodation is compact but well laid out for a single occupant or couple.
Practical details: the property is leasehold with 148 years remaining, an annual service charge of £1,800 and no ground rent. Council Tax is band D. Heating is mains gas with a boiler and radiators; glazing is secondary. The building is solid brick as originally constructed, which may mean limited wall insulation unless upgraded.
Location is a genuine strength: Hampstead Heath is under half a mile away and both Gospel Oak (Overground) and Tufnell Park (Northern line) stations are within easy reach. The immediate neighbourhood is inner-city cosmopolitan with strong local amenities, good broadband and excellent mobile signal — convenient for commuting, leisure and potential lettings.
Considerations: the flat’s size is small-to-average and better suited to a single buyer, couple or buy-to-let investment rather than a family needing large rooms. The building’s solid walls and period windows mean future buyers should budget for any desired insulation or energy-efficiency upgrades. Service charges are moderate for the area and should be factored into running costs.
