Set within a converted mid‑Victorian terrace on leafy Hanley Road, this two double‑bedroom flat offers character features and commuter convenience. High ceilings, sash windows and a decorative fireplace give the reception room period charm, while a bright eat‑in kitchen overlooks neighbouring gardens. The property is chain free and sold with a share of freehold, making it suitable for first‑time buyers or buy‑to‑let purchasers.
Internally the layout is compact: two double bedrooms, a separate reception and an eat‑in kitchen. Built‑in wardrobes, plentiful shelving and a full‑sized bathtub add practicality. At 526 sq ft the apartment is modest in size but well presented throughout, with good natural light from large sash windows. Finsbury Park Station is 0.9 miles away, providing fast links on the Victoria, Piccadilly and National Rail lines.
Buyers should note material considerations plainly: the EPC is D and the building appears to have solid brick walls with no presumed insulation, so heating costs may be higher than modern stock. The lease has c.89 years remaining; while share‑of‑freehold reduces ground rent concerns, lease length will need attention. The wider area scores as very deprived with above‑average crime statistics, which may affect resale or lettability expectations.
This flat suits a purchaser seeking period character close to transport links who is comfortable with a modest footprint and potential energy‑efficiency upgrades. Offered chain free and attractively located for local amenities, schools rated ‘Good’, and vibrant Finsbury Park life, it presents immediate move‑in potential with clear scope for improvement to increase comfort and value.
