Set on the top (third) floor of a Victorian conversion, this compact one-bedroom flat offers a bright open-plan living space and a large double bedroom. The property benefits from double-glazed windows throughout and comes with a long 999-year lease and a share of freehold, making ownership straightforward and low-risk.
Located moments from Holloway Road and Arsenal stations (Piccadilly line), the flat delivers excellent transport links and immediate access to shops, cafés and regular bus routes. Nearby green spaces include Highbury Fields and Finsbury Park; local schools include several rated Good and one Outstanding, supporting family needs and future resale appeal.
Practical running costs are clear: maintenance currently £1,320 per annum, no ground rent, and a low council tax band. The building is chain-free, so the sale can be progressed quickly. Broadband and mobile signal are both strong, useful for home working.
The apartment is small at approximately 419 sq ft and is best suited to a single buyer or couple, including first-time buyers or buy-to-let investors seeking a central North London location. Note the flat is reached via internal stairs to the top floor and has some compact areas and lower ceilings in converted attic spaces — a trade-off for the period charm and character.
