Property description
Castles present this stunning garden flat situated on the highly-favoured Harringay Ladder. Hampden Road offers enviable transport links - with Hornsey mainline train station (into Moorgate) at one end of the road and Turnpike Lane tube station (Piccadilly Line) just beyond the other end. The property comes with a newly extended 153 years lease and is tastefully decorated throughout. Features include two double bedrooms, a contemporary bathroom with storage space, a lovely lounge/diner looking out over the 40ft 'south facing' garden (shared use)... It's worth noting that the garden is extremely spacious - and being south facing - it gets 'all day' sunshine. Although the garden is technically shared with the flat above - the neighbours genuinely hardly ever use it.
Front Garden:
There is terracotta path leading to the shared front door.
Entrance:
Doors to ground floor flat and stairs to upper flats.
Hall:
Well presented and welcoming, featuring stripped and polished floor boards, great storage within the under-stairs cupboard, radiator.
Master/Bedroom: - 15' 8'' x 12' 1'' (4.77m x 3.68m)
This bedroom has a lovely calm feel to it as it's tastefully finished with a neutral colour scheme. It's naturally bright with a large double glazed bay window and you get a great sense of space with the high ceilings. There's also fitted carpet and a radiator.
Bedroom Two: - 12' 8'' x 9' 10'' (3.86m x 2.99m)
This is a great second bedroom, tastefully decorated with a double glazed window looking out down the side of the garden. There's fitted carpet and a radiator.
Bathroom:
The bathroom offers a clean modern look with a handy recessed area behind the door for additional storage and so on. Naturally bright with a double glazed window, panelled bath with mixer tap and flexible shower attachment as well as a flush fitted 'Grohe' shower over bath and a contemporary fixed head, contemporary built in wc and sink with storage beneath and a heated towel rail on the wall opposite the bath. The room is tastefully finished with limestone type tiling around the bath/shower.
Kitchen/ Living space - 17' 5'' x 10' 10'' (5.30m x 3.30m)
This room just works! It compliments a modern lifestyle and it's very much the heart of this great flat. Naturally bright with two double glazed windows to side and a large double glazed bay looking out over the south facing garden, you'll see from the photos that the reflects nicely onto the polished floorboards. The kitchen area features a sink, wall and base units, stainless steel fitted oven, gas hob, stainless steel extractor hood, radiator. There's also a double glazed door, so you can step straight out onto the patio area.
The South Facing Garden (shared with flat above) - 42ft and south facing with an additional 22ft side patio area.
When the sun shines - this lovely, low maintenance, 'South Facing' garden gets the sunshine - all day long. The flat is shared with the flat above which has it's own staircase down to the garden. Despite it technically being a 'shared garden' the current owner reliably informs us that the owner of the upper flat rarely ever uses it. It's worth noting that the current owner actually purchased this flat through Castles - so we can confirm that the previous owner gave the same assurances, so it may be well worth considering, or even discussing this with the current owner.
Tell me about the Lease:
The vendors solicitor is in the process of extending the lease; so the flat will be available with a newly extended lease with an unexpired term of over 160 years.
What we love about this flat:
We love the fact that there is a tube station at one end of the road and a mainline train station (into Moorgate) at the other end... ideal if you want to be sitting on a train moments after leaving home.
