Chain-free, first-floor two-double-bedroom apartment set within a gated development on Cockfosters Road. The apartment offers a large, welcoming hallway leading to a spacious open-plan kitchen / living / dining room with integrated appliances and high ceilings that enhance the sense of space. The principal bedroom includes an en-suite shower and fitted wardrobes; the second bedroom also has built-in storage and is served by a separate family bathroom.
Outdoor space includes a private rear balcony and access to a communal garden, plus an allocated off-street parking space for convenience. Practical features include underfloor heating from a mains-gas boiler and long lease (118 years remaining). Local transport is strong with Cockfosters Tube (Piccadilly Line) within easy reach and daily shops nearby.
Costs and constraints are straightforward: the property is leasehold, with an average service charge of £3,500 pa, ground rent of £650 pa and a council tax band rated as expensive. Broadband speeds are reported very slow — important if you work from home. Overall, this apartment suits buyers seeking low-movement, well-appointed accommodation in a quiet gated setting, including those looking to downsize or buy an investment-grade rental close to central London links.
