For those whose budget is limited but those who crave some outside space in their property a garden flat can provide the ideal solution. As Alan Mogg, senior sales consultant at Salter Rex estate agent, points out: “If you’ve got pets garden flats are ideal, much more practical than a balcony.
“And of course, around Hampstead, having a garden is desirable as you can sometimes extend into it to create a bit of extra living space.”
A garden flat can often be the best way to snag some outside space in this part of town because so many of the larger Victorian townhouses with small private gardens are now divided into flats.
Lowfield Road, West Hampstead NW6. Available through rhw estates for £525,000

The bay window with window seat in the bedroom is a particularly charming feature.
Fleet Road, Hampstead NW3. Available through Salter Rex for £535,000
