110 years remaining on lease — standard for modern builds
Service charge £6,500pa (above average) — factor ongoing costs
Annual ground rent £250; Council Tax band F — expensive

Set over two internal levels, this bright two-bedroom split-level apartment offers generous living space in a contemporary mid-rise building on Basire Street. The open-plan reception/kitchen is dual-aspect with large windows and glazed balconies, creating a light, airy living environment ideal for city professionals or a small family. The property benefits from underfloor heating, double glazing and modern finishes throughout.
Positioned within easy reach of Angel, Highbury & Islington and Essex Road stations, the flat is extremely well connected for commuting to the City and West End. The layout includes two bathrooms, useful for shared living, and lift access to the second/third-floor entrance. At around 1,000 sqft this feels larger than many inner-city two-bed flats and provides flexible space for home working or entertaining.
Buyers should note this is a leasehold property with 110 years remaining, an annual service charge of £6,500 and an annual ground rent of £250. Council tax is band F and described as expensive. The internal spiral staircase and split-level layout may be impractical for those needing step-free access or young children; there is no private garden.
Overall this is a spacious, well-lit modern apartment in a popular Islington location, offering good long-term potential for owner-occupiers seeking urban convenience or investors looking for a strong rental proposition, subject to leasehold costs being acceptable.
