Situated over the upper two floors of a Victorian mid-terrace, this split-level flat offers a compact, well-presented living space in N7. The accommodation feels bright thanks to multiple sash and roof windows, neutral decoration and wood-effect floors, creating a move-in-ready home for first-time buyers or a straightforward buy-to-let opportunity priced at £550,000.
Practical details are favourable: a long lease (167 years remaining), modest ground rent (£200) and a below-average service charge (£364.36) help running costs. The building has mains gas central heating, double glazing (installed before 2002) and access to ultrafast broadband via Virgin Media — useful for remote working or renting to professionals.
The layout comprises a reception room, separate kitchen and bathroom on the lower level, a double bedroom on the second floor and a loft-style master bedroom on the top floor with restricted head height and eaves storage. There is no private outside space; parking is on-street by residents’ permit.
Notable drawbacks are straightforward and factual: the building’s solid brick walls likely lack insulation, and the double glazing predates 2002 — both may warrant upgrade works to improve comfort and energy efficiency. The flat is reached by internal stairs and occupies upper floors, which may limit accessibility and moving convenience for some buyers. Overall, this is a sensible, well-located purchase for someone wanting a characterful period flat close to Tufnell Park and good transport links.
