Set on Lansdowne Road in Tottenham, this three-bedroom apartment occupies a generous 853 sq ft footprint within a 1930s end-terrace building. Its layout includes a spacious reception room, fitted kitchen, and high ceilings typical of the period — features that lend themselves well to a thoughtful refurbishment. The flat benefits from gas central heating, double glazing and excellent mobile and broadband connectivity. Transport links are strong: Northumberland Park and Bruce Grove rail stations and nearby Seven Sisters (Victoria line) provide fast routes into central London.
This lot will be sold at auction with a starting bid of £250,000. Buyers should budget for renovation: internal photos note dated finishes, visible wear and areas of mould that will require remedial work. The property is leasehold with only 37 years remaining; many mortgage lenders may refuse finance on such a short lease, so purchasers should check funding options or prepare for a cash purchase or lease extension costs.
Other material points: the immediate area is classified as deprived with above-average crime statistics, which may affect letting prospects or resale values until improvements are made. Service charge is £213 (below average) and council tax is described as affordable. Auction purchasers will also need to allow for the non-refundable deposit (5%) and a reservation fee (up to 6% inc. VAT, minimum £6,000) on exchange — factor these into total purchase costs.
For the right buyer — an investor, developer or first-time buyer able to buy at auction and fund works — this flat offers clear upside from refurbishment and reconfiguration in a Zone 3 location with strong transport and several highly rated local schools. Ensure you review the legal pack and clarify mortgageability, lease-extension costs and full renovation estimates before bidding.
