Low-maintenance two-bed near New Barnet station with parking and long lease.
Two-bedroom first-floor flat with 16ft living/dining room
A well-presented two-bedroom first-floor apartment in New Barnet, arranged within a modern purpose-built block. The flat offers a 16ft living/dining room, a fitted kitchen, two bedrooms and a bathroom, plus allocated residents’ parking and access to modest communal gardens. The 160-year lease provides long-term security for buyers.
This property will suit first-time buyers or investors seeking low-maintenance suburban living with excellent transport links: the mainline station and local shops are a short walk away. The block appears well kept externally and communal areas are modest but tidy. Nearby schools include several highly rated options, useful for young families.
Known limitations are factual and straightforward: the apartment is leasehold (160 years remaining) with an annual service charge around £1,872 and ground rent £200. Heating is via electric storage heaters and the current EPC is D, which may mean higher running costs compared with gas-heated homes. The overall internal size is relatively small (c.589 sq ft), so space-conscious buyers should view to confirm suitability.
Overall this is a pragmatic suburban flat offering convenience, long lease security and parking — a sensible purchase for a first-time buyer wanting easy access to transport, or an investor looking for a lettable, low-maintenance asset. Buyers should factor in service charges, energy costs and the property’s modest footprint when assessing value.
