- Large 19ft reception room with front-facing window
- Private balcony and access to large communal gardens
- Short walk to High Barnet Underground and shops

Light-filled and well-proportioned, this first-floor two-bedroom apartment offers a generous 19ft reception room and practical living space ideal for a first purchase. Set in a 1960s brick block, the flat benefits from a private balcony and direct access to large, well-maintained communal gardens that extend the living space outdoors.
Practical features include a fitted kitchen with integrated appliances, double glazing and a new 99-year lease on completion. The location is a strong selling point: a short walk to High Barnet Underground and local shops, with good schools close by and fast broadband and excellent mobile signal.
The apartment is presented in functional, dated condition and will reward modest updating — think cosmetic refurbishment rather than structural work. Heating is via electric storage heaters, which can be less efficient than gas central heating and may affect running costs. Note the leasehold status: a low service charge and long lease are positives, but the lease prohibits letting, so this is not suitable for buy-to-let investors.
Overall, this is a roomy, well-located flat with clear potential for a first-time buyer or purchaser seeking a comfortable home near transport links. Buyers wanting modern heating or rental potential should factor those limitations into their decision.
