Summary - Flat A, 58, Beresford Road N5 2HZ
2 bed 1 bath Apartment
Bright, large top-floor Victorian flat with communal garden and long lease.
Over 1,100 sqft — unusually large two-bedroom conversion
Set across the top two floors of a handsome Victorian terrace, this unusually large two-bedroom conversion offers over 1,100 sqft of well-proportioned living space ideal for first-time buyers seeking long-term room to grow. The full-width, south-facing reception is bright and airy thanks to high ceilings and large windows, and both bedrooms are genuine doubles with built-in eaves storage. A communal garden provides outdoor space uncommon for flats at this level.
Practical strengths include a long lease of 177 years, mains gas heating with boiler and radiators, excellent mobile signal and fast broadband — all useful for hybrid working. The apartment sits close to Newington Green and Upper Street, with Clissold Park nearby and good rail and tube links (Canonbury, Essex Road, Highbury & Islington) for City and central London commutes. Local amenities and a strong selection of primary and secondary schools add to its everyday convenience.
Buyers should be aware of material negatives: there is a single bathroom serving the whole flat, the accommodation is on the top two floors so there are multiple flights of stairs, and the building’s solid brick walls are assumed to have no insulation which can affect heating costs. Crime in the local area is above average and the neighbourhood has indicators of area deprivation. Service charge and ground rent figures have limited detail (service charge shown as 1,000; ground rent shown as 10) and council tax is above average — these should be verified.
Overall this period conversion is a spacious, characterful home with excellent transport and local amenities, strong potential for first-time buyers wanting generous room sizes and a long lease; buyers should budget for heating and verify service charge and local safety considerations before proceeding.
