Set in the heart of Covent Garden, this well-presented one-bedroom apartment combines period charm with contemporary finishes. High ceilings, sash windows and herringbone parquet enhance the spacious living room, while a newly fitted luxury kitchen (installed March 2025) provides a practical dine-in space. A private outdoor terrace offers rare central-London outside space.
The property is offered with a long lease and Share of Freehold, giving long-term security uncommon for the area. At approximately 628 sq ft, the layout feels generous for a central one-bedroom and will suit a professional couple, city-based buyer or buy-to-let investor seeking central location and rental appeal. Covent Garden Piazza, theatres, galleries and restaurants are on the doorstep; Covent Garden station is 0.1 miles away.
Buyers should note material costs of central living: an average service charge of around £4,000pa and an expensive council tax band. Broadband speeds are reported very slow locally, and the immediate area records very high crime and high area deprivation—factors to consider for personal safety measures and connectivity planning.
Overall this is a stylish, centrally located apartment with immediate lifestyle benefits and long lease security. It offers straightforward occupancy or lettings potential but comes with central-London running costs and some local socio-economic drawbacks that prudent buyers should weigh.
