Pemberton Road, London, N4 1AZ

Set on the first floor of an end of terrace Victorian building, this bright apartment offers something genuinely rare for this part of N4.

A separate kitchen, a well proportioned bathroom, a large south facing shared garden backing directly onto the New River, open river views from the flat itself, generous communal areas and additional storage. At approximately 369 sq ft, it is well laid out and makes for a brilliant first home in the heart of this increasingly popular neighbourhood.

The building is accessed via an unusually large communal hallway, which in a period conversion like this is a real bonus. Wide, welcoming and practical, it gives the building a real sense of space from the outset and provides useful day to day storage.

Inside the flat, the studio room is a great size, with original floorboards, high ceilings and a wide window framing uninterrupted views across the New River and towards the skyline beyond. Being end of terrace with no buildings directly opposite, there is a genuine feeling of openness and light. The dropped ceiling in the main living space has been installed with high grade soundproofing and insulation, meaning noise from above is significantly reduced, a real advantage in a Victorian house.

The kitchen is separate from the main living space and enjoys three windows, two overlooking the river and skyline, and one overlooking the garden. It is bright throughout the day and well positioned to catch the morning light. The bathroom is also separate and well proportioned. A step-in wardrobe provides useful storage space for clothing and household items.

Beneath the property, residents also benefit from a large shared storage room, ideal for longer term items.

Externally, the south facing communal garden is a real standout. Shared between the building residents, it backs directly onto the New River and receives sun for most of the day. The size and layout allow different residents to enjoy the space at the same time without feeling on top of one another. Swans, ducks, herons and other waterfowl are regular visitors, with cygnets and ducklings appearing in spring. There is no formal service charge, with maintenance arranged collaboratively between owners, creating a friendly and well managed building.

The location is exceptionally well connected. Manor House Underground Station (Piccadilly Line, Zone 2) is around a 20 minute walk or a short bus ride away, while Harringay Green Lanes Overground and Harringay National Rail are both within a 10 minute walk, providing swift access into Moorgate and beyond. Gospel Oak is just three stops away on the Overground, opening up Hampstead Heath with ease. Multiple bus routes run from the end of the road, making travel across North and Central London straightforward.

Despite being so well placed for transport, the setting feels calm and tucked away beside the water. Green spaces including Finsbury Park, Fairland Park and Chestnuts Park are all close by, while Alexandra Palace is easily reached on foot or via a short train journey from Harringay.

Green Lanes is moments away and continues to grow in popularity for good reason, with a mix of independent cafés, bakeries, bars and long established restaurants giving the area real character.
