This one-bedroom, age-restricted apartment sits at street level in a warden-assisted retirement block on Finchley Road, a short walk from Temple Fortune shops and frequent bus routes. The flat is vacant and ready for immediate occupation, with a practical layout including lounge, kitchen and a bathroom with a walk-in shower.
Residents benefit from an on-site warden, communal lounge, well-kept grounds, lift access and off-street parking. The building has gas central heating and an EPC rating of C, making it efficient for its age. The lease has 106 years remaining.
Buyers should note this is a leasehold retirement property for ages 55+ with a comparatively high service charge (approx. £6,100 pa) and council tax at Band E. The property is on the lower ground (street level), which may suit some buyers but could be perceived as less private or with reduced natural light.
The price has been reduced for a quicker sale, offering an opportunity for a retiree seeking a central, low‑maintenance home close to shops, services and public transport. Local mobile signal is excellent but broadband speeds are average; the wider area has higher crime levels, which some buyers may want to consider.
