Separate modern kitchen plus useful utility room

Victorian building with scope for sympathetic modernization
Set across approximately 1,097 sqft, this split-level two-bedroom apartment offers substantial living space with the rare advantages of a private front door and a rear garden — unusual for central London. The generous open-plan living/dining room benefits from dual-aspect light and flows to a separate modern kitchen and handy utility room on the ground floor, making the layout practical for everyday family life or entertaining.
Positioned moments from Kentish Town West, Chalk Farm and local amenities, the flat suits buyers who value green space and city living: Hampstead Heath, Primrose Hill and Camden Market are all easily reached. Broadband is fast and mobile signal is excellent, supporting home working and digital lifestyles. The property sits within a Victorian mid-terrace and shows clear scope for sympathetic modernization, particularly to the façade and some internal finishes.
Key ownership notes: the home is leasehold (approx. 93–94 years remaining) with an annual service charge of around £1,100 and an absentee freeholder—leaseholders are in the process of purchasing the freehold, which could improve long-term control and value. Practical positives are balanced by local factors: crime statistics are above average and the wider area scores as relatively deprived, while council tax is higher than average.
This property will suit buyers seeking roomy, well-connected accommodation with outdoor space and long-term upside through enfranchisement and targeted updating. It’s a solid choice for first-time buyers or couples who want a larger-than-expected central London home, provided they are comfortable with leasehold ownership and the neighbourhood’s mixed socio-economic profile.
