Set on the second floor of a secure 1960s purpose-built block, this one-bedroom flat offers bright, ready-to-live-in accommodation with a private balcony and modern open-plan kitchen. At 528 sq ft the layout feels comfortable: a sizeable bedroom, contemporary bathroom and a medium reception room with wood flooring create a straightforward home for a starter buyer or buy-to-let investor.
Practical benefits include a garage for parking, double glazing (install date unknown), mains gas central heating and fast broadband with excellent mobile signal. The property sits close to Gladstone Park and local amenities on Cricklewood Broadway; several well-rated primary and secondary schools are within easy reach.
Notable points to consider: the flat is leasehold and will be sold at auction, which can affect purchasing timelines and mortgage options. The building dates from the 1950s–60s and external fabric is basic; cavity walls are shown as built without added insulation (assumed), so energy efficiency improvements may be needed. The local area records above-average crime and scores high on area deprivation indices, which may influence suitability for some buyers.
Overall this is a compact, well-presented flat with clear short-term rental or owner-occupation appeal, but buyers should factor in auction purchase procedures, potential building maintenance or insulation works, and local area considerations before proceeding.
