Highgate Avenue, London, N6 5SB

A refurbishment opportunity in a sought-after North London location, offering clear potential for investors, cash purchasers and owner-occupiers seeking a home they can improve to their own specification.

This compact one-bedroom ground-floor apartment benefits from its own entrance and an unusually large, private enclosed rear garden.

The accommodation requires modernisation throughout, providing scope to enhance both its presentation and longer-term value.

Due to the size of the apartment, the property is considered suitable for cash buyers.

Highgate Underground station is close by, providing Northern line connections into central London, while Highgate Village, local shops, cafés and everyday amenities are all within convenient reach.

The area’s strong transport links and established rental demand add to the property’s investment appeal.

Once refurbished, the apartment is estimated to achieve approximately £1,750 per calendar month, equivalent to £21,000 per annum before costs.

The combination of location, private outdoor space and improvement potential makes this an interesting proposition for a landlord, developer or buyer looking to create a distinctive London home.
