Bright two-bedroom home near Piccadilly and Elizabeth Line stations.
Ground-floor period flat with high ceilings and bay window
Set on the ground floor of a well-preserved Victorian terrace, this two-bedroom period flat combines original character with practical modern updates. High ceilings and a bay window in the lounge create a bright living room; the kitchen-diner opens directly onto a shared paved garden, useful for low-maintenance outdoor space. The flat benefits from double glazing, gas central heating and a very long lease with a share of freehold, providing long-term security for buyers.
Practical transport links are a strong selling point: Northfields Piccadilly line and nearby West Ealing (Elizabeth Line) are within walking distance, making commutes central and airport travel straightforward. Local amenities include cafés, shops and green spaces nearby, and several well-regarded primary and secondary schools are within easy reach, appealing to first-time buyers and small families.
Notable considerations: the property sits in a higher-crime area, which may concern some buyers and could affect insurance or security costs. The building’s solid brick walls likely lack modern cavity insulation, so heating costs and comfort could be improved with further insulation work. The shared garden is paved and communal rather than private, and parking is residents’ off-street rather than a private driveway.
Overall this flat is a characterful, secure-lease purchase with good transport links and strong local amenities. It will particularly suit buyers seeking a manageable first home or a long-lease investment, while those sensitive to local crime levels or seeking private outdoor space should factor in these trade-offs.
