1 bed flat for sale

Highgate Road, Kentish Town NW5

Detailed Description

A rare, chain-free gem in the heart of Kentish Town, this elegant one-bedroom flat occupies the raised ground floor of a handsome Victorian terrace, just moments from Hampstead Heath. Thoughtfully restored, the property retains high ceilings, large sash windows and leafy garden views. It benefits from a long lease of approximately 945 years, peppercorn ground rent and low service charge.

Light-filled, well-proportioned rooms are finished in Farrow & Ball’s Wimborne White with new carpets and oak doors. The property has been extensively upgraded with a full rewire to most rooms, new lighting and Victorian-style pine skirting. The generous reception has a tiled fireplace, a versatile alcove for a home office or storage, and original shutters framing a sash window that looks onto a peaceful evergreen garden.

A bright galley kitchen enjoys three windows including an original sash and offers scope for modernisation. The spacious bedroom features a double-glazed bay window with acoustic glass. There is a tiled entrance hall and a stylish new bathroom with quality brassware, a cast-iron radiator, oak-seated WC and a shower over the bath.

Superb location within easy walking distance of Parliament Hill, Hampstead Heath, the swimming ponds, Lido and Belsize Park. Kentish Town Underground (Zone 2), Gospel Oak Overground and buses are close by, with independent cafés, restaurants, organic shops and pubs creating a true North London village feel.

The shared entrance is newly recarpeted and has an intercom. Immaculately presented and ready to move into, with strong investment potential.
