Two double bedrooms and one family bathroom on first floor
Own rear garden; small urban plot with patio and storage sheds

This Victorian ex-railway mid-terrace cottage offers a bright, recently modernised interior across two floors, ideal for a first-time buyer seeking a turn-key urban home. The ground floor opens to a large, open-plan living/dining area with a contemporary fitted kitchen and French doors to a private rear garden, giving useful indoor-outdoor living in an inner-city setting. Two double bedrooms and a bathroom sit on the first floor, providing straightforward family or sharer accommodation.
Practical strengths include gas central heating, double glazing, wood flooring in the reception and modern fixtures throughout. The property is chain-free and freehold, with good transport links — Cricklewood Thameslink station, major bus services and easy road access along the A5 — plus fast broadband and excellent mobile signal, which suit commuters and remote workers.
Be candid about constraints: the plot is small and the house sits in an area with very high recorded crime and wider neighbourhood deprivation; buyers should consider this when assessing long-term suitability. The cavity walls are assumed to have no added insulation and any buyer looking for energy upgrades or substantial alterations should allow budget for works and check planning rules for extensions.
Overall this cottage is best suited to first-time buyers or buy-to-let investors seeking a compact, low-maintenance period home in Cricklewood with immediate occupancy potential and modest scope for value-add through cosmetic or thermal improvements. An inspection is recommended to verify condition and the potential for internal reconfiguration or a small rear extension, subject to planning.
