A well-presented Victorian ground-floor flat offering two bedrooms, a private south-facing garden and a useful cellar. At 553 sq ft this smartly laid-out home makes efficient use of space and is ideal for first-time buyers or couples seeking straightforward access to green spaces and strong transport links.
Located just off St James’s Street and within easy walking distance of St James Street Overground and Blackhorse Road Victoria Line, the flat suits commuters who want quick journeys into central London. The reception room’s bay window and wooden floors give a warm, characterful feel while the kitchen opens directly onto the garden for easy indoor–outdoor living.
Practical details are favourable: a long lease (171 years remaining), mains gas central heating with a boiler and radiators, double glazing and excellent mobile and fast broadband speeds. The cellar provides generous storage and houses laundry appliances, freeing up living space above.
Buyers should note the property’s modest overall size and the linear Victorian layout, which may feel narrow compared with modern open-plan flats. The building has solid brick walls (no assumed wall insulation) and the double glazing install date is unknown — there may be opportunities to improve thermal performance. The surrounding area is classed as very deprived, so weigh local amenity and community factors alongside the property’s transport and outdoor advantages.
