Summary - Ground Floor Flat, 55 Carlingford Road N15 3EJ
2 bed 1 bath Apartment
Light-filled Edwardian home with scope to improve and extend.
Two bedrooms with bay-window main bedroom and bespoke storage
Set on the ground floor of a handsome Edwardian terrace, this two-bedroom flat offers bright living spaces and a private garden ideal for outdoor sitting and entertaining. The main bedroom features a bay window, engineered wood floors and bespoke alcove storage, while the second bedroom opens onto a glazed lean-to that works well as a reading nook, hobby room or small home-office. The contemporary kitchen and modern shower room reduce immediate refurbishment needs.
At about 829 sq ft overall, the layout feels generous for a ground-floor apartment and the reception opens directly onto a decked garden, creating a natural indoor–outdoor flow. Transport links are a strong asset: Turnpike Lane (Piccadilly line) is a short walk, with additional rail and Overground options nearby and fast broadband plus excellent mobile signal for home working.
Important practical points: the property is leasehold with 87 years remaining — buyers should check lease terms and any service/ground rent obligations. The building is solid-brick Edwardian with assumed no cavity insulation, and the double glazing dates from before 2002, so consider energy-efficiency upgrades. The area has higher crime levels and local deprivation, which may affect suitability for some buyers and future resale considerations.
For first-time buyers seeking a characterful home with outdoor space and good transport, this flat presents immediate move-in comfort with clear scope to add value (extension potential STPP and fabric/insulation improvements). Budget for lease review and targeted upgrades to maximise comfort and long-term value.
