Set on the second floor of a handsome period conversion on Ladbroke Grove, this one-bedroom flat offers generous proportions and a bright open-plan living space. At around 603 sqft the apartment balances classic Victorian features with contemporary finishes, providing a comfortable central-London home or a city lettings option.
Practical details are strong: share of freehold with 115 years remaining, council tax band D, and excellent mobile and fast broadband speeds for modern working-from-home needs. The flat is moments from Portobello Road and Golborne Road’s shops, cafés and markets, with Ladbroke Grove and Westbourne Park stations within walking distance.
There are important considerations to note. Heating is provided by electric room heaters and the building’s solid brick walls are assumed uninsulated, which could mean higher running costs and scope for thermal upgrades. The local area records higher crime levels and very high area deprivation — factors to weigh for both homeowners and investors.
Viewed honestly, this apartment suits a buyer who values location and character and is prepared to accept modest energy and security limitations, or an investor targeting strong rental demand in a sought-after West London postcode.
