Bright first-floor one-bedroom apartment in a classic Victorian terrace, a short five-minute walk from Holloway Road station. High ceilings, period details and a recently replaced roof give the home solid fabric and character, while a new double-glazed sash window improves warmth and street noise. The layout includes an entrance hall, lounge, compact kitchen, double bedroom, bathroom and useful loft storage above the hall, bathroom and bedroom.
The apartment is well placed for local amenities — cafes, restaurants, shops and frequent transport links are all within easy reach. At about 497 sq ft the accommodation suits a single buyer or couple wanting a central Islington base, or an investor seeking a lettable one-bed with good transport appeal. The long lease (108 years) and moderate council tax simplify purchase logistics; mains gas heating and radiators provide conventional, familiar heating.
Buyers should note a few practical points: the building’s solid brick walls are likely uninsulated (typical of its era), the kitchen is compact and may suit light cooking only, and the area scores as very deprived on local indices. Ground rent is £200 pa. The flat is described as generally well presented but may benefit from cosmetic updating to maximise rental income or resale value.
Overall this is a characterful, conveniently located one-bedroom with strong transport links and sensible tenure. It offers immediate move-in potential and clear scope for modest enhancement to increase comfort and value.
