Summary - VICTOR CAZALET HOUSE FLAT 9 GASKIN STREET LONDON N1 2RX
1 bed 1 bath Flat
Compact, light-filled N1 flat with excellent transport — short lease requires careful finance checks.
South-facing balcony and strong natural light
Light-filled one-bedroom flat on the second floor, set between Upper Street and Essex Road with fast links from Angel, Essex Road and Highbury & Islington. The reception room benefits from a bay window and the apartment has a south-facing balcony, separate kitchen and double bedroom — a compact, efficient layout suited to a single occupant or couple.
Important: the lease has 79 years remaining. Many high-street mortgage lenders will refuse to lend on flats with this short lease term; buyers should check finance options or budget for a lease extension. The property is chain-free and has low annual ground rent (£10) and council tax band C.
The building is an interwar mid-terrace block with double glazing (installed before 2002), gas central heating and solid brick walls (no assumed insulation). The flat is presented in good decorative order and is ready to move into, but the short lease and older glazing/insulation are practical considerations for future running costs and mortgage availability.
Location strengths include excellent mobile signal, fast broadband, plentiful local amenities and strong commuter links. Note the area records high crime and high deprivation indices; prospective buyers should factor local safety and security measures into their decision.
