A compact two-bedroom top-floor flat tucked in a well-maintained ex-local-authority block, moments from Hampstead Heath and South End Green. The apartment makes efficient use of 561 sq ft with a separate kitchen, reception room and contemporary bathroom — suitable for first-time buyers seeking immediate access to green space and local amenities.
The property benefits from far-reaching outlooks, ample built-in storage and the practical convenience of off-street parking (available by separate negotiation). Tenure is leasehold with approximately 100 years remaining, a low ground rent of £10 pa and an annual service charge of around £1,717. The sale is chain-free, so completion can be straightforward.
Buyers should note the flat’s small overall size and attic/top-floor position; ceilings are slanted in places and some rooms are compact. The building has a mid-20th-century construction and an ex-council history, which affects style and layout compared with newer developments. Crime in the immediate area is above average — prospective purchasers should factor in local safety measures and insurance costs.
Overall this is an affordable entry into NW3 for a buyer prioritising location and green-space access over generous internal living space. It suits a couple or small family who value Hampstead Heath, good transport links and nearby shops and cafés, but who are comfortable maximising a compact footprint and occasional stairs to reach the fourth-floor entrance.
