Summary - BLOCK A, 36 APARTMENT 18 HORNSEY ROAD LONDON N7 7AT
2 bed 1 bath Character Property
Spacious, light-filled two bedroom close to Holloway Road tube and Highbury Fields.
Over 1,100 sq ft duplex with dramatic double-height ceilings
This rare school-conversion duplex in the L’Ecole Building offers over 1,100 sq ft of airy living space with dramatic double-height ceilings and oversized arched windows. The open-plan kitchen and reception is flooded with natural light and provides sweeping 270-degree views across London — a striking central living space for entertaining and family life.
Upstairs are two genuine double bedrooms and a family bathroom with both bath and separate shower; a guest WC sits on the main living level for convenience. The gated development is very secure and peacefully set despite an exceptionally central location two minutes from Holloway Road tube and close to Highbury Fields, shops and cafés.
Practical points to note: the property is leasehold with 103 years remaining, an above-average service charge of £5,000pa and ground rent of £300pa. Heating is by electric room heaters; the building has solid brick walls with no assumed insulation. Council tax is described as expensive and the local recorded crime level is very high — factors to budget for when considering this central-city home.
Overall, this apartment suits buyers seeking character, generous space and transport convenience in N7, and those prepared to accept higher running costs and urban-area safety considerations in exchange for an exceptional, light-filled central London home.
