A bright, well-presented one-bedroom flat on the first floor of a red-brick mansion block in NW3. The apartment offers a large reception room, a double bedroom with built-in storage, a separate kitchen and family bathroom. Communal gardens, on-site porter and residents’ parking (first-come, first-served) add practical convenience for city living.
The property is chain free and comes with a long lease (approx. 172 years). Service charge covers heating and hot water which simplifies running costs, though the annual service charge is relatively high. The block dates from the 1930–49 period and has solid brick walls; some thermal performance limitations are likely (no insulation assumed). EPC rating D.
This flat will suit a single professional or couple seeking a low-maintenance, central NW3 base close to Primrose Hill and Chalk Farm station. It also offers straightforward landlord-friendly features for investors (long lease, communal maintenance), but prospective buyers should factor in the above-average service charge and the high-crime local statistic when assessing value.
Overall, the apartment delivers comfortable, well-kept accommodation in a desirable location with long lease security and communal amenities, balanced by ongoing service costs and average energy efficiency.
