The list price of £650,000 seems reasonably priced, though not exceptionally so, considering the average prices in the area and the property’s size and condition. Nearby similar properties support this conclusion; whilst there are higher priced properties on the same road the average is not significantly higher than the list price, making it a fair market value for a two bedroom apartment in this location.

The property appears to be in good, habitable condition, with a recently updated kitchen and bathroom visible in the photos. While the overall aesthetic is modern and clean, some minor cosmetic upgrades could elevate the property to an even higher level. The flooring looks new in the living area and the fixtures seem to be in good order. However, the overall appearance does not suggest luxury or high-end finishes.

Highbury is a highly desirable area in Islington, known for its Victorian architecture, green spaces, and proximity to excellent schools and transport links. The property’s location on Sotheby Road places it within walking distance of Highbury Barn, offering a variety of shops, cafes, and restaurants. The close proximity to several well-regarded primary schools (St. Joan of Arc, St. John’s, Gillespie) further enhances its desirability for families. Good transport links via the London Underground (Highbury & Islington) and several overground stations add to its appeal.

The property’s listing indicates no garden or significant land associated with it. This is a common feature for apartments in this area, and therefore the score reflects the lack of outdoor space.
