Summary - RICHMOND COURT, 55 MELVILLE PLACE LONDON N1 8NF
2 bed 1 bath Flat
Private balcony, parking and superb transport links for central living.
Newly renovated two-bedroom apartment with fresh flooring
Set on the first floor of a well-kept 1990s development, this newly renovated two-bedroom apartment combines contemporary finishes with a prime Islington location. The living room and refurbished kitchen give a bright, fresh feel, and one bedroom opens onto a private balcony overlooking the rear. An allocated off-street parking space is included — a rare benefit so close to central London.
The property is leasehold and comes with an above-average service charge (£5,087 pa) and a small ground rent (£174 pa). Heating is electric via room heaters rather than a communal system; buyers should note ongoing running costs may be higher than gas-heated equivalents. Crime levels are described as high locally and the wider area shows signs of deprivation, though transport links and local amenities remain excellent.
This apartment suits first-time buyers or professionals seeking turnkey central London living with strong commuter access via Angel station and numerous bus routes. It also has clear investment appeal given location and modern presentation, but prospective purchasers should factor in leasehold costs, electric heating, and neighbourhood safety when assessing long-term value.
