A bright, well-proportioned one-bedroom apartment on the third floor of Sensa Apartments, designed for efficient everyday living. The open-plan lounge/dining room opens onto a private balcony that looks over the communal courtyard, while a modern fitted kitchen and built-in bedroom storage keep the footprint practical and low-maintenance. Allocated off-street parking and a secure bike store add useful convenience for commuters.
The location is a standout: only 0.2 miles from Mill Hill East (Northern Line), with fast broadband and excellent mobile signal — ideal for commuters and home-workers. The property is sold with a long, secure share of freehold and 994 years remaining on the lease, offering ownership stability that many flats lack.
Costs and community features are clear: an average service charge of £2,500 and a community heating scheme are in place, and communal areas and a central park are well maintained. If rented, the apartment could produce around £21,000 a year (circa 5.25% gross yield), making it suitable for a buy-to-let investor as well as a first-time buyer seeking a low-effort home.
Be realistic about the local context: the wider area scores as deprived and local crime levels are high. Those factors are reflected in the price and will be relevant for families or buyers prioritising a quieter, lower-risk neighbourhood. Overall, this is a compact, well-presented flat offering good transport links, secure tenure and practical amenities for a single occupant or couple.
