Bright, compact and well located, this two-double-bedroom top-floor apartment offers an attractive first home or buy-to-let near Highbury Fields. The dual-aspect living room fills the space with natural light and the separate fitted kitchen gives practical day-to-day layout. The property is offered chain free with a share of freehold, simplifying the purchase process.
Stand-out extras include a private garage — useful for secure storage or rental income to offset costs — and double glazing installed post-2002. At around 600 sqft the apartment feels cosy but functional, with contemporary bathroom fittings and built-in storage in the master bedroom. Excellent mobile signal and fast broadband support home working or streaming needs.
Buyers should be aware of a few material considerations. The building dates from 1900–1929 with solid brick walls assumed to be uninsulated, which can lead to higher heating bills despite the mains-gas boiler and radiators. The local area scores as deprived with a higher crime level, so prospective purchasers should factor in personal security and community context.
Transport links are strong with Highbury & Islington, Arsenal and nearby Overground stations within walking distance, and excellent local amenities including markets, specialist food shops and cafés on your doorstep. For first-time buyers seeking a central, characterful home with immediate rental potential, this apartment offers a well-located, straightforward opportunity — provided you’re comfortable with its compact size and the neighbourhood profile.
