Light-filled and well positioned, this two-double-bedroom first-floor flat offers practical city living in Barnsbury. The reception opens onto a balcony, bringing outdoor space to an otherwise compact, modern apartment. With 651 sq ft the layout is sensible and works well for couples, first-time buyers or buy-to-let investors seeking strong transport links.
The development is low-rise and secure, with double glazing and gas central heating providing comfort and efficiency. Transport connections are excellent: Highbury & Islington (Victoria Line, Overground) and Kings Cross/St Pancras are within easy reach, while Upper Street’s shops, cafés and well-regarded local pubs and restaurants are a short walk away.
Buyers should note the apartment’s modest internal size and single bathroom, which may feel limited for some households. Service charge and ground rent are at average levels for the area and council tax is above average; the lease is exceptionally long (955 years) and tenure is a share of freehold, which is a clear positive for long-term ownership.
Overall, this is a convenient, low-maintenance urban home with good rental or resale potential driven by location and transport links. It will suit buyers who prioritise Barnsbury location and connectivity over extensive internal floor area or multiple bathrooms.
