A well-presented one-bedroom ground-floor flat in a handsome Victorian building, offered chain free with a share of freehold. The flat makes the most of its 392 sq ft with high ceilings, large windows and an open-plan kitchen/reception that feels larger than the numbers suggest. Finsbury Park station, local shops, cafés and nearby green spaces provide excellent everyday convenience and leisure options.
This property will suit a first-time buyer looking for a compact, characterful London home or an investor after a lettable, centrally located flat. The accommodation is modern in feel with wood flooring and a contemporary bathroom, but the building dates from the early 1900s — buyers should expect period maintenance and to budget for longer-term improvements where needed.
Practical points to note: the building is solid-brick construction with no known cavity insulation, and the date of double glazing is not recorded. Crime in the immediate area is above average, and the flat’s modest footprint means storage and entertaining space are limited. On the positive side the property benefits from fast broadband, excellent mobile signal, and easy access to multiple rail and tube lines, helping daily commutes and rental potential.
Overall, this is a compact, stylish urban flat that offers immediate move-in potential and sensible scope for improvement. It’s best for buyers who prioritise location, transport links and period character over generous internal square footage.
