Summary - King's Cross Road, King's Cross WC1X 9LS
1 bed 1 bath Flat
Chain-free modern flat minutes from major transport and amenities.
Private balcony off open-plan living area
A bright one-bedroom apartment in a modern purpose-built block between King’s Cross and Russell Square, ideal for a first-time buyer seeking straightforward city living. The open-plan reception and kitchen open onto a private balcony, extending the living space and bringing plentiful natural light through large windows. Built-in storage, bike storage and access to a communal garden add practical everyday convenience.
The building benefits from lift access and a mid-2000s construction date, with gas central heating via boiler and radiators. The flat is chain-free and comes with 109 years remaining on the lease, making it simpler to transact and providing reasonable long-term security. At about 516 sq ft (47.9 sqm) the layout is compact but well planned for single occupancy or a couple.
Buyers should be aware of some important local and tenure facts. The area records very high crime levels and is classed as deprived; you should check local amenities and personal safety factors for your needs. The property is leasehold with an annual ground rent of £350 and council tax band D. Double glazing predates 2002 and some communal elements reflect the building’s original 2007–2011 construction.
In short, this apartment offers a turn-key central London base with outdoor space and transport links on the doorstep. It suits a pragmatic first buyer wanting immediate occupancy and easy access to city amenities, though you should factor local safety context and ongoing leasehold costs into your decision.
