Light-filled period character meets compact, practical living in this two-bedroom first-floor conversion on Birnam Road. High ceilings, sash-style bay windows and a feature fireplace give the apartment a classic feel while a modern fitted kitchen makes daily life straightforward. The layout is efficient across c.505 sq ft, suited to a single occupant, couple or a buy-to-let investor seeking a well-connected central-N4 home.
Transport is a clear strength: Finsbury Park station (Great Northern, Thameslink, Victoria and Piccadilly lines) is within easy reach, alongside a busy local scene of cafés, shops and restaurants in Finsbury Park and Stroud Green. The flat is chain-free, leasehold with 149 years remaining, and shows no ground rent or service charge noted — helpful for simpler onward moves or investment planning.
Buyers should note the property’s compact footprint and modest room sizes typical of a first-floor Victorian conversion. There’s no private outdoor space and only a single bathroom, which may feel tight for some households. The building’s solid-brick construction likely lacks cavity insulation, so upgrading thermal performance could be needed to improve comfort and running costs.
The surrounding area is inner-city and cosmopolitan but scores above average for crime and is described as very deprived in local indices; prospective buyers should visit at different times and check local reports. Council tax is affordable and mains gas central heating is already installed, which helps day-to-day running. Overall, this flat offers period charm, strong transport links and a compact package for first-time buyers or investors prepared to trade size for location and character.
