Bright, characterful flat near Swiss Cottage transport and shops.
Spacious 850 sq ft two-bedroom first-floor apartment with high ceilings
Set within an attractive stucco-fronted mansion block in Swiss Cottage, this bright two-bedroom first-floor apartment offers generous lateral living and classic period detail. High ceilings, sash windows and original coving create an airy reception room with an open-plan kitchen, while two well-proportioned bedrooms include an en-suite to the principal. The apartment extends to about 850 sq ft and benefits from a private garden and plentiful natural light.
Practical aspects are straightforward: a long lease (approximately 107 years remaining), EPC rating C and a small annual ground rent of £50. Heating and hot water are supplied via a communal scheme, which suits a maintenance-light lifestyle but can limit individual control. The service charge is notable at around £5,454 per year and should be factored into running costs.
The location is a key strength — a short walk to Swiss Cottage and Finchley Road for Jubilee Line and extensive shops, cafes and amenities. Several highly regarded schools are nearby, making this a sensible choice for families or professionals wanting convenient links and local educational options.
Buyers should note a few practical considerations: the building’s solid brick construction likely has limited cavity insulation as built, and the communal heating means less control over temperatures compared with private systems. Local crime levels are higher than average for the area, so prospective purchasers may wish to investigate security arrangements in the block. Overall, this is a characterful period apartment with spacious rooms and strong location appeal, best suited to buyers seeking period character and central convenience rather than a turnkey modern retrofit.
