Summary - 4 POLLARD HOUSE, NORTHDOWN STREET, ISLINGTON, LONDON N1 9BJ
2 bed 1 bath Flat
Compact, ready-to-rent apartment close to transport and amenities.
Short walk to King’s Cross and St Pancras transport hub
A bright two-bedroom apartment in a well-maintained red-brick mansion block, just a short walk from King’s Cross and St Pancras. The current open-plan kitchen/reception and recent neutral finishes make the flat ready to occupy or let, with good natural light from sash-style windows and attractive period ceiling heights.
This leasehold flat comes chain-free with 99 years remaining, a low annual ground rent and a modest service charge—features that simplify purchase or rental management. The seller previously achieved a c.6.2% rental yield, underlining the property’s appeal to buy-to-let buyers as well as first-time purchasers looking for central N1 living.
Internal space is compact at about 569 sq ft and there’s no private outdoor area, so the layout will suit those prioritising location and period character over large rooms or gardens. The surrounding area offers excellent transport links, shops and cultural destinations, but note the property sits in a high-crime area, which may influence insurance, security measures and long-term buyer priorities.
Overall this is a straightforward, well-presented city apartment for buyers who value proximity to transport and amenities, low holding costs and a ready-to-rent finish. Buyers who need more space, private outdoor amenity, or a quieter neighbourhood should consider if the compact layout and local context meet their longer-term needs.
