This ground-floor one-bedroom flat occupies a rear position in a grand Victorian mansion block, offering private garden access via French doors and plenty of natural light. At 427 sq ft the accommodation is compact but well presented, with high ceilings and period character that suits buyers seeking a stylish central-home base close to Highgate Village and Archway tube.
Practical strengths include a share of the freehold with a new lease to be granted, ultrafast broadband and excellent mobile coverage, residents’ permit parking, and mains gas central heating. Service charges are £1,247.46 (2024/25) and ground rent is £100 per year; Council Tax is Band C — all important running costs to factor into your budget.
Notable constraints are the property’s small overall size and some restrictive lease covenants (no pets without permission; requirement to keep floors carpeted except kitchen and bathroom). The building is of solid brick construction predating 1900 and likely lacks modern cavity wall insulation, so further draughtproofing or upgrading may be desirable. Crime in the area is reported above average — an important local consideration.
This apartment will suit a first-time buyer or investor seeking a well-located, characterful flat with private outdoor space and good connectivity. It’s presented in good decorative order and offers immediate occupation, yet buyers should budget for potential energy-efficiency improvements and factor communal charges and lease conditions into purchasing decisions.
