Top‑floor two‑bed flat with spacious reception room
Separate kitchen with dining space; kitchen ceiling lower than other rooms
Good‑sized bedrooms and large bathroom; one bathroom only
Approx 794 sq ft — average-sized for area
Leasehold tenure; check remaining term and service charges
Timber‑frame building with assumed no wall insulation; may need upgrades
High local crime rate — consider security and insurance implications
Excellent mobile signal and fast broadband; excellent local schools nearby
Set on the top floor of a late‑Victorian mid‑terrace, this bright two‑bed flat balances period character with a contemporary fit‑out. The reception room is spacious and well lit; the separate kitchen has room to dine, and both bedrooms are good sizes — practical for a couple, small family, or sharers.
The location is a major asset: walkable to Tufnell Park and Kentish Town for cafés, shops and transport links, with excellent mobile and fast broadband. Strong local schools (several rated Outstanding) and plentiful amenities make the area attractive for families and long‑term renters.
Be upfront about the material considerations: the property is leasehold, on the top floor with stairs only, and the building is timber‑framed with assumed lack of insulation — further works may be needed to improve thermal performance. Crime levels in the immediate area are higher than average, so factor in security and insurance costs. The kitchen ceiling is lower than other rooms and the glazing install date is unknown.
Overall this is a well‑situated, characterful flat with genuine rental or owner‑occupier appeal. Buyers seeking an immediately turnkey renovation should note potential maintenance and energy‑efficiency upgrades; for those prepared to invest, the combination of size, location and broadband/connectivity offers solid future value.
