Chain-free raised-ground flat with parking and private terrace in central Islington.
Raised ground-floor one-bedroom flat with private rear terrace
Bright, well‑proportioned one-bedroom flat on the raised ground floor of a secure gated development in central Islington. The apartment benefits from full-height patio doors that open onto a small private rear terrace, plenty of natural light and a practical open-plan living area suitable for a single occupant or couple. An allocated undercroft parking space and on-site porter add everyday convenience in this busy urban setting.
The property is offered chain-free with a very long lease (970 years), making it straightforward to purchase. Transport connections are excellent — Angel, Essex Road and Highbury & Islington are all within easy walking distance — and local amenities include a wide range of shops, cafes and theatres. The flat’s layout and neutral presentation mean it’s ready to move into or update selectively to personal taste.
Buyers should note some important considerations: the development has a relatively high annual service charge and a small ground rent, council tax is above average, and the surrounding neighbourhood records higher crime statistics and elevated area deprivation measures. The private terrace is modest in size, and the internal space is average for a central London one-bedroom apartment.
Overall this is a practical, well-located urban home that suits first-time buyers, professionals or investors seeking a low-hassle purchase in a lively part of Islington, provided they accept the ongoing service charges and urban neighbourhood realities.
