Great 1-bd. flat in the charming Crouch End village, (N8, Highgate borders)

Description

This is a very pleasant, large, light, comfortable, well-furnished and fully-equipped, 1-bedroom, 1-bathroom flat (apartment). It's filled with natural light through lots of windows, some in a wrap-around, corner position. The flat has great, open views. The house is in a green area with lots of trees and gardens, but it's only a minute's walk from the attractive, characterful and highly-regarded "village" area of London, Crouch End, with its self-contained, "villagey" feeling. Crouch End was named the 'Best Place to Live in London' by 'The Sunday Times', in 2023. University of London colleges are 30-45 minutes away by plentiful public transport. The flat is fully & well-furnished and equipped - thus we normally do not accept in-coming furniture. It is on on the second floor (3rd floor in North America) of a large, 19th century, end-terrace, corner house. It enjoys views of gardens on both sides, along the trees of leafy Wolseley Road on another, and, in the distance, an open, panoramic view towards the iconic Alexandra Palace. Central London and University of London colleges are within easy reach by public transport, normally 30-40 minutes. Some previous tenants have even bicycled to central London work & colleges. The apartment is attractively carpeted, including the living room, hall and bedrooms. The living room has a comfortable sofa and armchair, a small desk, a built-in bookcase, a glass TV-table and side table, and a glass dinng table, and lamps.

In the garden, there is a concrete-embedded bar as a lock-up for bicycles, which is shared.
