Bright, well-presented one-bedroom apartment on the first floor of an imposing Victorian terrace in Barnsbury. The semi-open plan kitchen/living/dining room opens onto a private roof terrace, ideal for al-fresco meals and entertaining. Large bedroom with high ceilings and built-in wardrobe space provides comfortable sleeping accommodation. The flat measures approximately 457 sqft and benefits from double glazing and mains gas central heating.

Nearby schools include several outstanding and good-rated primaries and secondaries, making the area suitable for buyers seeking long-term neighbourhood quality and excellent transport links.
Practical details: the property is sold as a share of freehold with about 93 years remaining on the lease and a below-average service charge of £500. The building is solid-brick Victorian construction (likely no wall insulation), so buyers should consider potential retrofit or insulation work. Local crime levels are above average — worth checking for personal comfort and insurance considerations.
This apartment suits a first-time buyer or investor seeking a characterful central London base with outdoor space and strong transport connections. It offers immediate move-in condition with clear potential to personalise, while requiring attention to lease length and possible building upgrade works.
