A ground-floor one-bedroom flat tucked into an Edwardian building close to Finchley Central and West Finchley tube stations. The apartment is sold at auction with vacant possession and offers off-street parking plus access to a communal garden — practical benefits for commuters and investors seeking rental or refurbishment opportunities.
The flat requires full modernisation: the accommodation has secondary glazing, solid brick walls (likely uninsulated), an E EPC rating and a mains-gas boiler with radiators. These factors mean refurbishment will be needed to bring energy performance and living standards up to modern expectations, but the layout is straightforward and suitable for a sympathetic upgrade.
There are important legal and financial considerations. The lease has approximately 58 years remaining and a ground rent of £100 per annum; many mortgage lenders will refuse to lend on this term. The property is being sold at auction on 4th December 2025 and a buyer’s administration fee applies, with possible additional completion fees set out in the legal pack. Buyers should review the lease, legal pack and lending options before bidding.
For cash buyers or experienced investors comfortable with auction purchase and lease-extension work, the flat presents a low-entry-price refurbishment prospect in an affluent, well-connected part of Finchley, near good schools and green space.
