Light-filled, two-bedroom sixth-floor flat offering practical modern living for first-time buyers or young professionals. The apartment benefits from a long 955-year lease and share of freehold, plus chain-free sale — making the purchase straightforward. Oak flooring, full-height windows and a south-facing balcony create an airy feel, while integrated kitchen appliances and built-in wardrobes add everyday convenience.
Practical extras include gated off-street parking for one car, a resident caretaker, communal gardens and useful external storage. The block has a lift and double glazing throughout. Transport links are strong with Finchley Central and West Finchley stations within easy reach and good bus and road connections for commuting into central London.
Buyers should note a few material points: heating is by electric room heaters rather than a communal gas system, which can increase running costs; the service charge is £4,580 per year (above average); and the local recorded crime level is high — worth considering when assessing safety needs. Overall property size is average at 648 sq ft, with one bathroom and three primary rooms.
This apartment suits buyers prioritising turn-key modern finishes, secure parking and a long lease, who are comfortable with electric heating and the higher service charge. It also offers modest scope to open the kitchen into the living area if a more contemporary layout is desired.
