A bright, canal-side one-bedroom apartment in Lock House offering open-plan living and a private balcony with direct water views. The layout makes efficient use of 489 sq ft: a generous reception/kitchen, a double bedroom with built-in wardrobes, a large bathroom and useful utility cupboard. Included secure underground parking and a residents’ gym add practical value for city living.
The development provides round-the-clock concierge, well-maintained communal terraces and a communal gas heating scheme that simplifies management. Positioning is a major draw — a short walk to Primrose Hill and Regent’s Park, with Camden Town and multiple transport links close by, making this home well suited to professionals who want green space and city convenience.
Be clear about the material facts: the property is leasehold (245 years remaining) with ground rent of £450 and above-average council tax. Heating is provided via a communal system rather than a private boiler, which can affect control and costs. Local statistics show very high crime and high area deprivation, which may concern some buyers and could affect resale or letting prospects.
Overall, this chain-free apartment will suit buyers seeking a low-maintenance, well-serviced pied-à-terre or city base with parking and concierge. Investors should weigh the strong location and amenities against local crime figures and service charges tied to communal services.
