A substantial Victorian mid-terrace offering freehold vacant possession of the three upper floors, arranged over raised ground, first and second floors. High ceilings, large windows and period features give strong character and scope to create generous family accommodation or rental units in a sought-after N1 location close to Dalston Junction, Canonbury and Essex Road stations.
The property is unmodernised and requires full renovation throughout: dated finishes, electric room heaters, likely insulation and services upgrades, and a single bathroom for four bedrooms. EPC rating E, council tax band F and an assumed solid brick fabric without insulation mean energy and running costs will need addressing.
Upper floors are sold freehold with vacant possession; the self-contained lower ground flat is sold off on a 125-year lease (from 1999) with a £300 pa ground rent. The lot will be sold at online auction with a six-week completion, buyer’s fees and possible additional completion charges set out in the legal pack — purchasers should factor these into purchase costs.
For builders, developers or experienced investors this is a value-driven refurbishment project in an inner-city, highly qualified area. The layout, period ceiling heights and proximity to good schools and transport make it attractive once upgraded; however, budget realistically for works, compliance, and the auction timetable.
