Set on a quiet Victorian terrace in the Harringay Ladder, this two-bedroom ground-floor conversion combines period charm with a contemporary full-width rear extension. The 728 sq ft layout feels unusually spacious for a flat of this type, with a bright open-plan kitchen/living area, oversized skylights and bi-fold doors that open onto a private, low-maintenance garden with light stone patio.
The home is well finished: solid wood parquet flooring in the hallway and living area, a bespoke fitted kitchen with integrated appliances, and a luxurious marble-tiled bathroom with underfloor heating and a walk-in rainfall shower. Storage is generous throughout and the property benefits from mains gas central heating via boiler and radiators. The lease is long (125 years) and the sale includes a share of the freehold on completion of both sales.
Transport links are a clear strength: Turnpike Lane (Piccadilly Line) and Hornsey (Great Northern) stations are both about a five-minute walk, with roughly 20-minute journeys to King’s Cross or Moorgate. Local amenities, independent cafés and green spaces including Alexandra Palace are close by. The property sits in an area popular with young families and students and is in the catchment for several well-rated primary and secondary schools.
Important practical points: the neighbourhood records very high crime and the wider area is classified as very deprived, which may concern some buyers. The building dates from 1900–1929 and the external walls are traditional solid brick (no insulation assumed). Glazing type wasn’t specified and council tax band is unknown. There is a single bathroom and the flat is a ground-floor conversion, which may not suit buyers seeking upper-floor views or full separation from street level.
