Flat in London, United Kingdom, 34 m²

Situated on the ground floor of a corner Victorian building, this bright apartment offers a truly rare opportunity for this N4 area. Separate kitchen, spacious bathroom, large south facing communal garden and open river views from the apartment itself. A well-planned space of approximately 369 square feet would make an excellent first home in the heart of this increasingly popular area.

The building has a spacious public hall, which, for a building of this period, represents a significant advantage. Wide, welcoming and practical, it gives the building a spacious feel from the start and provides useful storage space for every day.

Inside the apartment is a spacious studio room with original floors, high ceilings and a wide window framing uninterrupted views of the river and horizon. Since this is the outermost building, with no direct neighbors opposite, there is a real sense of spaciousness and light. The lowered ceiling in the main living area features high-grade soundproofing and insulation, significantly reducing noise from above, a significant benefit in a Victorian home.

The kitchen is separated from the main living area and has three windows: two overlooking the river and horizon, one overlooking the garden. It receives sun throughout the day and is well positioned for morning light. The bathroom is also separate and well laid out. A wardrobe provides useful storage space for clothes and household items.

Under the building, residents also have access to a large communal storage area, ideal for long-term items. Outside, the south-facing communal garden really stands out. It directly faces the New River and receives sun most of the day, allowing different occupants to enjoy the space without disturbing each other. Swans, ducks, herons and other waterfowl regularly visit these places, and in the spring ducklings and chicks appear. Services are organized jointly by the owners, creating a friendly and well-managed building environment.

The location has excellent transport links. Manor House Underground Station (Piccadilly Line Zone 2) is a 20-minute walk or quick bus ride away, while the Harringay Green Lanes commuter line and Harringay National Rail are just 10 minutes' walk away, providing quick access to Moorgate and beyond. Gospel Oak is just three stops away by commuter train, offering easy access to Hampstead Heath. Several bus routes run from the end of the road, making travel around North and Central London easy.

Despite convenient transport links, this area feels calm and secluded next to the water. Nearby green spaces include Finsbury Park, Fairland Park and Chestnuts Park are all nearby, while Alexandra Palace is easily accessible on foot or a short train ride from Harringay. Green Lanes is within walking distance and continues to be popular with a variety of independent cafes, bakeries, bars and long-established restaurants that give the area its special character.
