A bright one-bedroom period conversion on the raised ground floor of a Victorian terrace, offered chain free and ready to move into. The reception room benefits from high ceilings and a large window, creating an airy central living space. The flat includes a double bedroom, a contemporary bathroom, and a handy hallway recess suitable for a home study.
Practical aspects suit both first-time buyers and buy-to-let investors: 115 years remain on the lease, the service charge is moderate, ground rent is nominal, and council tax is described as affordable. Broadband and mobile signal are strong, and transport links into central London are excellent, with Hampstead Heath and Regent's Park within easy walking distance.
Buyers should note a few material points: the building's solid brick walls are assumed to have no insulation, and the wider area shows higher-than-average crime rates and relative deprivation. These factors could affect heating costs and resale or rental positioning. The property sits within a popular residential street of Kentish Town but is in an inner-city cosmopolitan setting rather than a suburban enclave.
Overall this apartment offers period character and sensible living space for NW5 at this price point. It will suit someone seeking a compact, well-presented home or a straightforward investment, provided buyers account for the urban location and potential thermal upgrade needs.
