Laid on the ground floor of a handsome Edwardian conversion, this newly renovated two-bedroom maisonette blends period character with modern comforts. High ceilings, a bay-windowed reception and decorative fireplace give the living room strong visual appeal, while recent works — new boiler, updated electrics, double-glazed sash windows and a contemporary bathroom — mean you can move in with minimal immediate expense.
The layout suits a small family or a couple seeking a home-office option: a generous double bedroom plus a smaller second room that works well as a study, nursery or guest room. The eat-in kitchen opens directly onto a private, planted garden with a pear tree — a peaceful nook for BBQs, summer evenings and seasonal colour. A full basement provides rare, practical storage for bikes, suitcases and tools.
Practical details are positive: share of freehold with a 995-year lease, no ground rent and no formal service charge (collective works split 50/50 with the co-freeholders). Transport links are solid for North London: Hornsey and Alexandra Palace rail stations and Turnpike Lane Underground are all within a mile, and Priory Park, Alexandra Palace and Crouch End Playing Fields are nearby for weekend leisure.
Points to note: the property sits in a mid-terrace solid-brick building with assumed no wall insulation, and the EPC is currently rated D (potential C). The second bedroom is modest in size and the plot is small, so outdoor space is limited to the rear garden. Council Tax is Band D. These are balanced by substantial recent upgrades and a long lease, making the flat particularly appealing to buyers seeking period charm with modern systems already in place.
