Characterful first‑floor flat near Holloway Road — long lease and recent roof works..
First-floor one-bedroom apartment, c.497 sq ft
A bright one-bedroom first-floor apartment in a handsome Victorian mid-terrace, set on a quiet tree-lined turning just moments from Holloway Road (Piccadilly Line). The apartment benefits from genuine period character — high ceilings and a feature fireplace — alongside practical updates such as a new roof and a recently fitted double-glazed sash window.
At about 497 sq ft, the layout offers a spacious lounge, separate compact kitchen, double bedroom and bathroom, with storage in each room and extensive loft storage above. The property has a long lease (108 years) and low-level ground rent, making it straightforward for buyers looking to step onto the property ladder or secure a London buy-to-let.
Practical facts to note: heating is mains gas via boiler and radiators, walls are original solid brick (likely without insulation) and the area records very high deprivation metrics locally, which can affect neighbourhood feel and resale comparables. Council tax is moderate and there is no flooding risk. Overall this is a well-located, characterful apartment with good transport links and potential for modest cosmetic improvement to increase value.
