Approximately 998 sq ft — generous London proportions
Private rear garden with direct access (small plot)

Spacious three-bedroom split-level maisonette occupying raised ground and ground floors of a Victorian mid-terrace. High ceilings, large windows and period sash details give generous proportions across about 998 sq ft, while a modern kitchen and two bathrooms suit everyday family life. Direct access to a private rear garden adds outdoor space rare for the area.
Practical positives include a long lease with share of freehold, chain-free sale, mains gas heating with boiler and radiators, double glazing (install date unknown) and excellent mobile and fast broadband — useful for commuters or home workers. Swiss Cottage and Finchley Road tube stations are within easy reach and several highly regarded schools are nearby.
Notable drawbacks are factual: the area records above-average crime and is classified as deprived; service charges run about £2,000 annually; the plot and garden are small; and the property’s solid brick walls are assumed uninsulated, which may mean higher heating costs or retrofit work. The property is an older Victorian build, so buyers should expect some maintenance and to check the glazing date, insulation and any modernization needs before proceeding.
This home will suit a small family or professionals seeking period character, space and good transport links, with scope to improve energy efficiency and personalise finishes. All factual details (lease length, service charge, Council Tax band D, flood-risk) should be confirmed during due diligence.
