Set on the second floor of a well-maintained interwar block on Gaskin Street, this compact one-bedroom flat offers bright, efficient living in central N1. The reception room benefits from a bay window and natural light, and a south-facing balcony extends the living space. A separate fitted kitchen and double bedroom provide practical layout for single occupants or couples.
The location is a major draw: moments from Angel, Essex Road and Highbury & Islington stations, with fast broadband and excellent mobile signal—ideal for commuters and city professionals. The building is chain-free and presented in good decorative order, ready to move into or let.
Important practical points are set out plainly. The property is leasehold, modest in size (approximately 441 sq ft), with solid brick walls likely uninsulated and double glazing installed before 2002. The area has high crime statistics and is described as very deprived, factors to weigh against the location and transport convenience.
Overall this is a well-presented central London flat suited to a first-time buyer or investor seeking a compact, connected home with immediate occupancy potential. Buyers should confirm lease details, service charges and any planned building works, and consider upgrading insulation or glazing in future renovations.
