Chain-free top-floor two-bed with balcony, en‑suite and strong storage in Hornsey Rise.
Chain-free third/top floor apartment, 799 sq ft (74.2 m²)
A bright, practical two-bedroom apartment on the third/top floor of a modern 2015 block, offered chain-free and recently redecorated. The apartment’s west-facing reception opens onto a private balcony with leafy views and evening sun — a rare slice of calm in this inner-city setting. Good built-in storage, a principal bedroom with fitted wardrobe and en‑suite, plus a second double bedroom opposite the family bathroom make the layout comfortable for professionals, sharers or a small family.
The building benefits from modern construction: solid soundproofing, economical insulation, an EPC B rating and a residents’ sinking fund for long-term maintenance. There’s a gated communal garden to the rear and an active residents’ Facebook group, reflecting a settled, supportive community.
Important practical points: the flat is leasehold with 114 years remaining and an above-average ground rent of £1,200 per year. The local area is classified as very deprived and recorded crime is above average; buyers should check local safety and lifestyle priorities. Transport and digital connectivity are strong, and several well-rated primary and secondary schools are nearby.
Overall this is a well-presented, low-maintenance home with good storage and modern finishes, suited to buyers wanting a ready-to-move-into flat in Hornsey Rise. It will particularly suit professionals or investors who value turnkey condition and strong letting potential, provided they accept the ground rent and local area context.
