Summary - 242 SOMERSET GARDENS LONDON N17 8JY
2 bed 1 bath Flat
Compact two-bed with parking and easy transport links.
Chain free with approximately 110 years remaining on lease
A practical two-bedroom first-floor flat in the Somerset Gardens development, offered chain free with a long lease (about 110 years). The apartment extends to around 603 sq ft and includes a large reception room, separate kitchen, one bathroom and allocated off-street parking — a rare convenience for this area of N17.
This home will suit first-time buyers or buy-to-let investors seeking a compact, well-lit city flat close to transport. The location is well connected by local buses and nearby underground links, and there are several primary and secondary schools with good Ofsted ratings within reach. Communal landscaped grounds provide a pleasant exterior setting and the flat benefits from excellent mobile signal and fast broadband.
Buyers should note some practical downsides: heating is via electric storage heaters (no mains gas), and the property sits in an area with above-average crime and high deprivation indices. Internally the finish is typical for a 1990s build and may require minor cosmetic updating rather than full refurbishment. Ground rent is modest (£150), council tax is described as affordable, and the flat is leasehold.
Overall this is a sensible, straightforward purchase for someone prioritising transport links, parking and a ready-to-live-in two-bedroom in Tottenham. It offers clear rental or entry-level ownership potential, provided buyers accept the heating type and the broader neighbourhood challenges.
