Summary - 4 FLAT 1 GRAFTON YARD LONDON NW5 2NF
2 bed 2 bath Apartment
Contemporary first-floor apartment with terrace frontage and excellent transport links.
Long lease (c.973 years) and peppercorn ground rent
This first-floor flat in NW5 offers a contemporary, lock-up-and-leave home with clear practical advantages for a first-time buyer. The open-plan reception with large glazing opens onto a terrace walkway, filling the apartment with natural light. Both bedrooms have fitted wardrobes and one benefits from an en-suite shower. The long lease (c.973 years remaining) and peppercorn ground rent provide tenure security uncommon at this price point.
The building dates from the early 2000s and presents well-maintained interiors: wood flooring to the reception/kitchen, neutral decoration and recessed lighting. At 73.7 sq m (793 sq ft) the accommodation feels generous in reception and main bedroom, while the kitchen and bathrooms are compact but modern. Ultrafast broadband and excellent mobile coverage support home working or streaming needs.
Be aware of material considerations: the flat is above commercial premises on a terraced parade, which can bring daytime activity and noise. The area records high local crime levels compared with borough averages — buyers should confirm personal security preferences and insurance implications. Service charges are £1,502.42 for the six-month period stated and parking is yet to be confirmed. Tenure is leasehold; buyers must instruct solicitors to check covenants and the head-lease share.
Overall, this is a practical, well-located city apartment offering secure long-lease ownership and easy access to Kentish Town and Camden transport and amenities, suited to buyers prioritising location and convenience over a large private outdoor area.
