Set on the first floor with its own private entrance, this two-bedroom flat blends period charm and modern updates across 741 sq ft. A large bay-windowed reception fills the home with light, while a modern kitchen and generous bathroom make everyday living straightforward for a small family. One bedroom enjoys garden views; a private section of the rear garden and excellent external storage add welcome outdoor space and practicality.
Positioned 0.4 miles from Hornsey station and 0.1 miles from Rokesly Junior School, the location is a major draw for families seeking schooling and reliable transport links. The property sits close to green spaces including Weston Park and the Parkland Walk, with Crouch End’s shops and cafés within easy reach. Share of freehold and a long underlying lease (989 years) provide tenure security.
Buyers should note a few material considerations: the building’s solid brick construction likely lacks cavity insulation, which may mean higher heating needs and future insulating works. The area records average crime and a higher deprivation index locally, and the flat has a single family bathroom. Service charge is low (£242/year reported) but is managed ad hoc with biannual meetings to consider works, so future contributions may vary.
Overall this is a practical, characterful family home with good outdoor space, storage and schools on the doorstep. It will particularly suit buyers wanting a well-located, long-lease property with scope for energy improvements and cosmetic personalisation.
