End-of-terrace Victorian flat with generous 1,200 sq ft layout
Three bedrooms split-level with double reception and high ceilings
Large private garden — rare for central London flats
Chain free, freehold ownership
Single bathroom only — potential need for a second bathroom
Solid brick walls likely uninsulated — upgrade advised for efficiency
Above-average council tax; high local crime rate to consider
Excellent transport links and nearby 'Good' schools, fast broadband
Set within an imposing end-of-terrace Victorian house on Archibald Road, this split-level three-bedroom garden flat offers substantial living space and period character in the heart of Tufnell Park. The dual reception rooms, high ceilings and original features create a bright, airy feel, while a large private garden provides rare outdoor space for central-London living.
The flat is chain free and freehold, arranged over generous proportions (approximately 1,200 sq ft) with mains gas boiler and double glazing (installation date unknown). Its location scores highly for local amenities and schools — several 'Good' Ofsted-rated primaries and secondaries are within easy reach, and Tufnell Park Underground (Northern Line) plus strong bus links make commuting straightforward. Broadband speeds are fast and mobile signal average.
There is clear potential to upgrade and personalise: the property’s solid brick walls are assumed uninsulated, presenting an opportunity to improve energy efficiency and comfort. The accommodation currently includes one bathroom, which may limit families or sharers unless a second bathroom is added. Buyers should also note above-average council tax and a higher-than-average local crime rate when weighing purchase and ongoing costs.
This is a compelling choice for a family or buyer seeking generous period accommodation with outdoor space in a premium N7 location. It suits purchasers prepared to invest in targeted improvements (insulation, modernising the bathroom/kitchen) to unlock the property’s full potential.
