This fourth-floor, 583 sq ft penthouse in Lightfield is a modern one-bedroom new build in the heart of High Barnet. The open-plan kitchen/living/dining space with patio/balcony access offers bright, contemporary living and a compact, easy-to-maintain layout suited to singles or couples commuting to the City.
The development is gated and created by an award-winning builder, providing contemporary finishes, integrated kitchen appliances and communal green spaces within walking distance of High Barnet Northern Line station. Local shops, cafés and good schools are nearby, and King George’s Fields is under a 10-minute walk for regular green space.
Practical points to note: the property is leasehold (999 years remaining) with a peppercorn ground rent. Service charge details are not yet confirmed and allocated parking is available only to selected plots, so potential buyers should confirm costs and parking availability. Broadband speeds are average locally and the area records higher-than-average crime, which may influence insurance and security considerations.
Overall this penthouse will suit first-time buyers or professionals seeking a ready-to-move-in, low-maintenance London base with quick Northern Line access. It offers modern specification and locality benefits but buyers should factor in unknown service charges, parking availability and local crime levels when budgeting and viewing.
