Private balcony overlooking the street and nearby park
Compact 441 sq ft layout — efficient but limited space
Modern fitted kitchen and bathroom — move-in ready
Leasehold tenure — check term, service and ground charges
Very high local crime levels — verify local safety data
Very slow broadband speeds may impact remote working
Set on the second floor of a handsome Victorian terrace, this one-bedroom apartment offers a bright reception room, modern fitted kitchen and private balcony just moments from Waterlow Park and Highgate Village. High ceilings and period sash details give the apartment character, while contemporary finishes in the kitchen and bathroom make it move-in ready for a first-time buyer or buy-to-let investor.
At around 441 sq ft the layout is compact but well-proportioned with an open-plan living/dining area and a large double bedroom. Heating is provided by a mains-gas boiler and radiators; walls have average thermal performance. The property is leasehold — prospective buyers should check the remaining term and service/ground charges.
Location is a major strength: access to Archway Underground, local shops, cafés and several well-regarded primary and secondary schools sits alongside immediate green space at Waterlow Park. However, the neighbourhood records very high crime levels and local area indicators show higher deprivation. Broadband speeds are reported as very slow, which may matter for remote working.
This apartment suits someone seeking a characterful urban home or an investor looking for straightforward rental potential in a popular north London pocket. Be aware of the practical considerations — leasehold status, broadband limitations and local crime statistics — when deciding if this property meets your needs.
