Smart, well-connected one-bedroom with balcony and long lease, ideal for urban living.
Generous reception with open-plan kitchen and dining area
A bright one-bedroom period conversion on the first floor, quietly set moments from King’s Cross St Pancras. The apartment offers a generous reception with open-plan kitchen, a double bedroom with built-in wardrobes and a private balcony — ideal as a central London pied-à-terre or first home.
Practical strengths include a long lease (138 years remaining), mains gas central heating with a modern boiler and radiators, double glazing, fast broadband and excellent mobile signal. The apartment sits in a highly connected transport hub with exceptional Underground, National Rail and Eurostar links, and benefits from the recent regeneration of King’s Cross with new cultural, office and retail activity nearby.
Buyers should note material negatives: the area records very high crime levels and is classified as deprived, which may affect future resale or rental demand. The building’s solid brick walls likely lack cavity insulation, so heating costs could be higher than modern builds. The property is leasehold with an average service charge of 1,772 (unspecified period) and no council tax detail provided.
Overall this flat suits a buyer seeking central location and convenience over suburban calm — a convenient, well-appointed home with clear potential but some local and fabric-related compromises to accept.
