This chain-free first-floor Edwardian conversion combines period character with practical family space. High ceilings, original wooden floors and a large reception/dining room create a bright, airy feel across the sizeable living area. The flat includes three double bedrooms and direct access to a substantial private garden — rare for a conversion and useful for children or outdoor entertaining.
The location is a strong asset: a short walk to Finchley Central station, Ballards Lane shops and good local schools (including St Mary’s CofE and Hasmonean). Broadband speeds and mobile signal are excellent, making the home well suited to commuters and families who work from home. There is also access to a large loft for extra storage or conversion potential (subject to consents).
Practical details to note: the property is leasehold with 949–950 years remaining, ground rent is nil and service charges are managed on an ad-hoc basis under the lease. There is one bathroom for three double bedrooms, and the building’s solid brick construction likely lacks cavity insulation, which may mean higher heating costs or future retrofit work. Council Tax is Band E, above average for the area.
Overall, this is a characterful, well‑located home that will suit families seeking space, garden access and excellent transport links. Buyers wanting a fully modernised energy performance should plan for possible insulation or other upgrade works, but the long lease and garden make this a practical long-term purchase.
