A compact, chain-free one-bedroom flat on the first floor of a purpose-built red-brick development in Southgate. At about 431 sq ft the layout is efficient: reception with bay window, separate fitted kitchen and bathroom — an easy-to-manage home for a single occupier or a low-maintenance buy-to-let. The property benefits from double glazing, electric heating and off-street communal parking. Broadband and mobile signal are strong in this area, and local amenities, buses and the Piccadilly Line are within easy reach.
The long lease (144 years) provides security for buyers and investors; service charges run at approximately £1,488 per year and there is no ground rent. External areas and communal grounds are modest but well maintained, and the block presents in average-to-good external condition. Council tax is described as affordable and nearby schools include several rated Good, which may appeal to local owner-occupiers.
Considerations: the flat is small and best suited to a single person or couple rather than a family. Heating is electric rather than gas, which can affect running costs depending on use. The layout and finish appear straightforward rather than premium — buyers seeking larger rooms or extensive outdoor private space should note the limited internal footprint and communal external garden. Overall this is a practical, low-entry property for first-time buyers or investors seeking a genuinely manageable London rental or starter home.
