A modern, first-floor one-bedroom apartment in a popular Edgware development, offered with a very long 987-year lease. The home has an open-plan kitchen/lounge leading onto a private balcony, a double bedroom and a bathroom with a bath — a compact, contemporary layout suited to a single occupant or couple.
Practical features include fast broadband, excellent mobile signal and convenient walking distance to local shops, cafés and the nearby station, making commuting straightforward. The building is a low-rise contemporary brick block with communal forecourt, street parking and landscaped grounds.
Buyers should note ongoing costs: an annual service charge around £2,200 and ground rent circa £450. Heating is via a community scheme, which can affect control and bills compared with individual systems.

Overall this is a sensible purchase for a first-time buyer or investor seeking a low-maintenance modern flat with long lease security and good transport links. The apartment’s compact footprint means it’s best for those prioritising location and convenience over generous internal space.
