Set on the ground floor of a well-preserved Victorian terrace, this two-bedroom conversion in the Harringay Ladder offers comfortable, characterful living with a private south-facing garden. The layout balances period features — high ceilings and a bay window — with a modern open-plan kitchen/living area and integrated appliances, making it ready for everyday life and relaxed entertaining.
Practical strengths include a long 126-year lease with a share of freehold, double glazing fitted after 2002, mains gas central heating and no flood risk. The flat is an average-sized 640 sq ft, with an intact solid-brick structure typical of pre-1900 construction; council tax is described as affordable and broadband and mobile signals are strong.
Notable drawbacks are the location’s higher local crime level and the building’s assumed lack of wall insulation, which may affect heating costs despite double glazing and gas radiators. The single bathroom and average overall size may feel limiting for some buyers.
This property will suit small families or first-time buyers seeking a mix of Victorian character, outdoor space and excellent transport links (Manor House, Harringay and Green Lanes nearby). It also offers scope to improve thermal performance or personalise interiors, while benefiting from a private, landscaped garden and long lease security.
