Bright period conversion near Canonbury station, ideal for first-time buyers.
Chain free with 889 years lease remaining
Light-filled period conversion on Mildmay Grove North, ideal for a first home or buy-to-let. The split-level layout places living space and kitchen on the lower of the two upper floors, with a larger principal bedroom and bathroom above. High ceilings, original sash windows and neutral modern finishes give immediate curb appeal and easy move-in condition.
Practical positives include chain-free sale, a very long lease (889 years) and share of freehold, low service charge (£50pcm), and quick access to Canonbury Overground and multiple bus routes into central London. The area offers cafes, shops and transport links within a short walk, suited to commuting professionals.
Important drawbacks are straightforward: the flat is compact (approx. 535 sq ft) and arranged on upper floors, so there is no step-free access and stairs are required. Private outdoor space is limited, and local crime levels are above average — worth factoring into living comfort and insurance costs. Walls are likely solid brick with no built-in insulation, so heating costs could be higher than modern builds.
Overall this is a characterful, well-located small two-bedroom apartment that suits buyers wanting light, period features and excellent transport links. It will particularly appeal to first-time buyers or investors prepared for a compact, upper-floor home with some practical trade-offs.
