A bright one-bedroom fifth-floor flat in a modern purpose-built block, aimed at buyers looking for an affordable step onto the property ladder. The apartment offers a double bedroom, a spacious reception room with an open-plan fitted kitchen and a contemporary bathroom — all set within a 2012-era building with lift access to every floor.
Practical extras include an allocated off-street parking space and a communal roof terrace for outdoor space. The building benefits from double glazing and modern construction, and the location is convenient for South Harrow Piccadilly line services and local shops, with fast broadband and excellent mobile signal for home working or streaming.
There are important factors to note: the remaining lease is about 80 years, which may cause some mortgage lenders to refuse finance and could affect resale value. Heating is electric room heaters rather than a mains gas or communal system, which can mean higher running costs. The area records higher-than-average crime and sits in a deprived ward, so buyers should weigh local safety and security considerations.
This flat suits a practical first-time buyer or buy-to-let investor prepared to manage a short lease and electric heating, or someone seeking a compact, low-maintenance urban home close to transport and amenities. Legal and leasehold costs may be payable beyond the purchase price, so confirm lease details and lender criteria early in your search.
