Summary - Flat 4, 42 Danbury Street N1 8JU
1 bed 1 bath Apartment
Bright Georgian one‑bedroom, chain free, moments from Angel Tube and Regent’s Canal.
Chain free, 999‑year lease — long lease security
This bright one-bedroom apartment sits on the second floor of a well-preserved Georgian townhouse on Danbury Street, moments from Angel Underground and local shops, cafés and canalside walks. At 460 sq ft the layout provides a double bedroom, separate fitted kitchen, reception room and a luxury shower room — presented in excellent condition and offered chain free with a very long 999‑year lease.
The flat will suit a first-time buyer seeking a central, characterful London home with low running hassle: mains gas boiler and radiator heating, fast broadband and excellent mobile signal. Annual service charge is modest at £1,028 and council tax sits in band D. Proximity to good primary and outstanding secondary schools adds family-friendly appeal despite the one-bedroom size.
Be realistic about running costs and fabric: the building dates from c.1900–1929 and has solid brick walls with assumed no insulation, which can affect heat retention. The wider area shows signs of deprivation and crime is average — typical of inner‑city locations — so buyers should factor potential refurbishment or draught-proofing into budgets.
Overall this is a rare, chain‑free opportunity to own a slice of Angel’s Georgian streetscape within easy reach of transport, restaurants and the Regent’s Canal. It’s best for buyers prioritising location, period character and long lease security, and willing to invest modestly in improving energy efficiency over time.
