Bright, compact and chain-free, this south-facing studio on Blackthorn Avenue offers a low-fuss entry into N7 living. The open-plan living/kitchen opens onto a private terrace, bringing extra usable space and a leafy outlook over mature treetops. At 402 sq ft the layout is efficient, with built-in storage and integrated appliances already in place.
Set in a secure modern development completed in the mid-2000s, the building includes concierge and lift access and sits close to Highbury & Islington and Caledonian Road stations. Local green spaces include Highbury Fields and Paradise Park, while Upper Street’s shops, bars and restaurants are within easy reach. The long lease (c.233 years) and chain-free sale make purchase straightforward for first-time buyers or investors seeking a lettable pied-à-terre.
Buyers should note the property is a small single-room layout — best suited to a single occupant, couple or as an investment — and heating is electric underfloor, which can be more expensive than gas. The flat is leasehold with a ground rent of £450 (average); council tax sits at band D. Overall this is a practical, well-presented city base with outdoor space and good transport links.
