Flat D, 385 Finchley Road, Finchley, London, Camden, NW3 6HD

At £375,000, this 667 sq ft flat is offered at about £562/sq ft, well below the local average of £1,106/sq ft—a strong acquisition point for a project. The separate reception and kitchen, period-style building and vacant possession give a buyer a clear canvas to rework the finishes and modernise the kitchen and bathroom. The street-facing views show no obvious major external failure, though they cannot confirm the roof or rear condition.

This is a hands-on project rather than a light refresh: the photographed interiors have worn floors and marked finishes, and a dark patch on a living-room wall needs investigating to establish whether there is an active moisture source. The £35,000–£60,000 renovation range gives a sense of the work involved; the calculated score is a C, with the low entry price and strong economics offset by weaker fundamentals and the scale of the job.
