Requires modernisation to kitchen and bathroom to maximise value
This light-filled first-floor Edwardian conversion offers generous ceiling height, sash-style windows and a large reception room that suits a single occupant or couple. The flat has a separate kitchen with dining space and a double bedroom; overall layout is practical for daily living and entertaining.
The property has genuine period character alongside practical upgrades: double glazing, gas central heating, fibre broadband and an exceptionally long lease (circa 963 years). Annual service charge is low (around £500) and the tenure is a share of freehold, simplifying long-term ownership costs.
Notable drawbacks are factual and important: the area records very high crime rates and is described as deprived, which may affect resale or rental appeal. The kitchen and bathroom are dated and would benefit from modernisation to maximise value. There is no private outdoor space and parking is on-street within a controlled parking zone.
Located a short walk from Archway Underground and within easy reach of Highgate Village and Waterlow Park, the flat suits a first-time buyer or investor seeking a characterful central London home with renovation potential and low holding costs. Buyers should arrange their own checks on services and fittings, as none have been tested.
