Summary - 83 BARKSTON GARDENS LONDON SW5 0EU
3 bed 2 bath Apartment
Large period three-bedroom apartment with private entrance and communal garden.
Private entrance and direct access to communal garden square
Occupying the lower ground floor of an attractive Victorian red-brick building, this lateral three-bedroom apartment offers 1,275 sq ft of well-planned living with a private entrance and direct access to a leafy communal garden square. The principal bedroom features built-in wardrobes, a dressing area and an en-suite bathroom; two further bedrooms and a family shower room complete the accommodation. Oak floors, a bay-fronted reception room with a gas period fireplace and a separate kitchen/breakfast area give a comfortable, modern feel while retaining period charm.
Practical storage is a strong feature: there are three external vaults plus a separate utility room. The flat comes with a long lease (share of freehold) and a nominal ground rent, making ownership straightforward. Transport links are excellent—Earls Court and Gloucester Road stations are within easy walking distance—while nearby schools and local amenities suit family life in an inner-city, affluent area.
Notable running costs and fabric details are stated plainly: the average service charge is around £2,500 per year and council tax is described as expensive. The building is solid brick and presumed uninsulated in the walls (constructed before 1900), so although double glazing was installed after 2002 and heating is mains gas with a boiler and radiators, the apartment may be less thermally efficient than newer construction. The property is lower ground floor, so natural light in some rooms may be reduced compared with upper floors.
This home will suit buyers seeking a sizeable period apartment with garden access and strong transport links, and those who value long lease security. Buyers looking for the highest thermal efficiency or top-floor light should note the construction and lower-ground position when viewing.
