This top‑floor penthouse sits within a modern gated development close to Wembley Park, offering easy access to transport, shops and local amenities. The apartment is presented with a spacious lounge/diner, fitted kitchen and a contemporary bathroom, making it suitable for a first-time purchase or a buy‑to‑let investment with an estimated rental of around £2,000 pcm.
Practical positives include an allocated off‑street parking space and low‑maintenance communal grounds. The loft‑style layout creates character with sloped ceilings and bright roof glazing in the kitchen, while the accommodation measures about 677 sq ft — a comfortable two‑bedroom footprint for urban living.
Important lease and lending information: there are only 63 years remaining on the lease. This is a material issue — many mortgage lenders will likely refuse a mortgage on this property unless the lease is extended. Buyers should factor in the potential cost and time required to extend the lease or arrange alternative funding.
Other local considerations: broadband speeds in the area are reported as slow and recorded crime levels are high; these factors may affect occupier choice or lettability. The flat is offered chain‑free which simplifies the purchase process for cash buyers or those with financing in place.
