Stunning Period Flat | Archway N19 | 1-Bed | Assured Lifetime Tenancy

A beautiful, large mid-Victorian flat refurbished to a high standard, with outdoor space and an assured lifetime tenancy. A rare opportunity to exchange into a truly special home.

The Property:

A spacious, light-filled first-floor 1-bed flat within a grand Victorian mid-terrace building of just three properties. Every room is generously proportioned with impressive 3-metre floor-to-ceiling heights throughout — giving the whole flat an exceptional sense of space.

The tall sash windows are a real standout feature, flooding every room with natural light and creating a genuinely airy, open feel.

Living Room — 4.1m x 3.7m (~15 sq m) A superb reception room bathed in natural light, finished with brand new luxury gloss walnut flooring.

Bedroom — 5m x 2.7m (~13.5 sq m) A genuinely generous double, currently accommodating a king-size bed with ample space remaining for a full home office setup. New plywood base laid and ready for your choice of carpet or laminate.

Bathroom — 2.6m x 1.5m Recently refurbished at significant expense — luxury porcelain grey tiling throughout with a brand new three-piece suite. A real highlight of the flat.

Hallway — 3.3m x 1.4m (~4.6 sq m) Unusually large for a one-bed with excellent storage throughout.

Kitchen — 3.3m x 2.4m (~8 sq m) Brand new full-fitted with large corner dining bench — a proper eat-in kitchen.

Outside

Accessed via window, this unofficial outdoor area is a rare and genuine perk. Step out to your own enclosed space framed by picket fencing and planters — somewhere to grow things, store things, and sit among the greenery. Squirrels and birds visit regularly.

Location

In the heart of Archway, moments from the village charm and green spaces of Highgate, the culture and buzz of Camden, and the open heaths of Hampstead. Excellent transport links via Archway and Tufnell Park Underground stations (Northern line).


SEEKING

Honestly, I love this flat and this neighbourhood. But my two daughters (6 and 8) stay with me regularly and need their own space — particularly my eldest, who is neurodivergent and needs privacy to regulate. Right now they share a sofa bed, and it simply isn't fair on them.

I'm genuinely open to any 2-bedroom properties with some outdoor space. In an ideal world: a 2–3 bedroom property with a garden, in or around Central London, Essex, West Sussex or Surrey — though I know that's a big ask.

Perhaps your kids have grown up and moved on, the bedroom tax is hitting hard, or you're simply ready for a fresh start and a quieter chapter. Maybe you've just separated, retired, or want to simplify. You might want to move into vibrant London and this particularly exciting area away from the suburbs. Whatever your reason — if you're ready to downsize into something genuinely special, you might just have found your next home.

If you've invested in your décor and need help with removal costs, I'm open to negotiation.
