Secure second-floor flat with balcony and concierge, close to Finsbury Park transport.
Second-floor one-bedroom with private balcony
A bright one-bedroom apartment on the second floor of a secure private development, ideal for a first-time buyer or a buy-to-let investor. The open-plan living area opens onto a private balcony, bringing natural light into compact but well-proportioned rooms. The building benefits from a 24-hour concierge and modern brick-and-glass façades, giving city living a secure, contemporary feel.
Practical strengths include a long lease (109 years remaining), chain-free sale, and very good transport links with Finsbury Park nearby for Victoria, Piccadilly and Thameslink services. The apartment is finished with wooden floors and built-in wardrobes in the double bedroom, making it move-in ready for many buyers.
Buyers should note the ongoing costs: an annual service charge around £3,000 and ground rent of £250. Heating is electric room heaters rather than a communal gas system, which may increase energy bills. The local area scores as inner-city cosmopolitan but has above-average crime and pockets of deprivation, so buyers should factor neighbourhood conditions into their plans.
Overall, this is a compact, modern city apartment offering convenient transport links and secure communal amenities. It suits a single occupant, a couple, or an investor seeking a city rental, provided the service charges and electric heating suit the buyer’s budget and priorities.
