Compact, bright one-bed in central Camden — ideal first home or rental.
Bright reception with floor-to-ceiling windows
Set on the first floor of a period building in central Camden, this bright one-bedroom flat offers compact city living with a modern finish. The reception room benefits from large floor-to-ceiling windows that flood the space with light, while a separate, well-equipped kitchen keeps living and cooking areas distinct. The bedroom is generous for the size and includes a fitted wardrobe for storage.
At 342 sq ft this property is small and best suited to a single occupant or couple seeking a central base, a city pied-à-terre, or a rental investment. The interior feels contemporary with wood flooring and clean finishes, and practical features include secondary glazing, mains gas central heating and fast broadband/ excellent mobile signal—useful for home working.
Buyers should note material constraints: the property is leasehold, in a building constructed before 1900 with solid brick walls and assumed no cavity insulation, which may affect cold-weather comfort and running costs. The wider area records very high crime and is classified as deprived; viewings should consider local safety and lifestyle factors. Service charge is £700 (below average), and there is no flooding risk.
This flat’s strengths are its central Camden location, natural light and ready-to-live-in standard. It suits a first-time buyer wanting immediate access to shops, transport and nightlife, or an investor targeting strong rental demand in NW1, but budget for potential heating/insulation works and consider the leasehold implications before deciding.
