Recently refurbished kitchen (2024) with integrated and freestanding appliances
143 years remaining on lease; peppercorn ground rent, no fixed service charge
Immaculate period features: cast-iron fireplaces, cornicing, sash-style windows
Ground-floor maisonette — convenient access but smaller overall footprint
Solid brick walls (assumed no insulation) — potential thermal upgrade opportunity
EPC band D; consider energy-efficiency improvements to reduce bills
Excellent local schools and public transport links (Bounds Green, Alexandra Palace)
This ground-floor two-bedroom maisonette blends Edwardian character with recent upgrades, making it a comfortable move-in home or an attractive buy-to-let. The property benefits from a private south-facing rear garden, a refurbished kitchen (2024) and an abundance of period details including original cast-iron fireplaces, cornicing and sash-style windows.
Situated in a well-connected part of Haringey, the flat is within easy walking distance of Bounds Green and Alexandra Palace stations and sits close to several highly rated schools (including two Outstanding-rated options). The layout is compact and efficient, with engineered wood floors, built-in storage and direct garden access — good for first-time buyers, small families or investors seeking steady rental demand.
Practical considerations are straightforward: the lease is long (circa 143 years) with a peppercorn ground rent and no fixed service charge, gas central heating and newly fitted double-glazed sash windows. The property occupies the lower level of a mid-terrace and has low local crime and fast broadband — useful for remote working and family life.
Buyers should note the flat’s overall footprint is small-to-average for a two-bedroom, so living space is compact compared with larger family homes. The building’s solid-brick construction suggests limited original cavity insulation (assumed) and the EPC is D — future insulation or energy-efficiency upgrades could reduce running costs. The tenure is leasehold, which may be a consideration for some buyers.
