Railway Approach, Harringay N4

Generous living space, a separate kitchen diner and allocated off-street parking make this one-bedroom flat at Mermaid Court an appealing North London home. Set within a low-rise brick development close to Harringay Station, it combines bright, well-proportioned rooms with extensive fitted storage, an EPC rating of B and a remaining lease of approximately 114 years.

Inside, the entrance hallway provides useful space for coats, shoes and everyday essentials, with a large storage cupboard and a separate heated linen cupboard. Gas central heating is supplied by a combination boiler, while double glazing with additional secondary glazing helps keep the home comfortable throughout the year.

The south-facing reception room enjoys views towards Finsbury Park and the Emirates Stadium. There’s generous space for sofas and accompanying furniture, making this a comfortable room for relaxing or entertaining. Wood-effect laminate flooring, integrated roller blinds and two ceiling fans with lighting complete the space.

A separate, south-facing kitchen diner is a particular advantage, with room for a dining table seating up to eight. Fitted wall and base units, together with a tall larder cupboard, provide plenty of storage. There’s a built-in electric fan oven, a gas hob with an extractor hood, and space for a separate fridge, freezer, dishwasher and washing machine. A stainless steel sink incorporates a separate filter tap, with plumbing provision for a reverse-osmosis water filter and a water softener elsewhere in the flat.

A glass-block partition separates the kitchen from the reception room, allowing light to pass between the spaces while keeping cooking and living areas distinct. Linoleum flooring and directional spotlights give the kitchen a practical finish.

The bedroom is comfortably proportioned, with space for a king-size bed and bedside furniture. A fitted three-door mirrored wardrobe provides generous hanging and shelf storage, while carpeting adds warmth underfoot. The window has additional secondary glazing and an integrated electric blind operated by remote control, alongside a ceiling fan with lighting.

The bathroom features a walk-in shower with both handheld and overhead fittings, a wall-hung WC with a bidet spray, and a basin with fitted storage. An anti-fog mirrored cabinet, underfloor heating and a heated towel rail add everyday comfort. The towel rail can also run electrically during warmer months when the central heating is switched off. A window and extractor fan provide ventilation, with motion-activated lighting completing the room.

The development has a secure communal entrance with fob access and an audio intercom, individual lockable post boxes, a wide communal staircase and a secure communal bin area. Allocated off-street parking adds further convenience.
