Period character, high ceilings and share of freehold in a prime Harringay Ladder location.
Raised ground-floor, entire flat across one level, generous rooms and high ceilings
Light-filled raised ground-floor apartment occupying the whole floor of a handsome Victorian terrace on Cavendish Road. The open-plan reception/kitchen benefits from unusually high ceilings, original wood floors, sash windows and tasteful period details that create a strong sense of character and space. The main bedroom is a generous 20ft x 12ft with dual sash windows and a fitted wardrobe — rare scale for a one-bedroom in this pocket of North London.
Practical positives include double glazing, gas central heating with boiler and radiators, and a bathroom plumbed for a washing machine that can double as a utility area. The property is sold as a share of freehold, simplifying long-term ownership costs and management for an owner-occupier. Finsbury Park, Green Lanes’ shops and restaurants, and several good/Outstanding primary schools are all within easy walking distance, making this a convenient, well-connected inner-city home.
Buyers should note material facts plainly: the building dates from the 1930s–40s and walls are solid brick with assumed no cavity insulation, so thermal performance may be lower than modern builds. The local area records high crime levels — important to consider for security and insurance. Broadband speeds are average; mobile signal is excellent. This is an average-sized one-bedroom (approx. 515 sq ft) that offers strong lifestyle appeal but may need targeted energy-efficiency upgrades.
This apartment will suit a first-time buyer seeking period character and space near excellent transport and local amenities, or an investor after a sought-after Harringay Ladder address. It offers immediate move-in potential with clear scope for sympathetic upgrading to improve comfort and value.
