Set on the sixth floor of Dickens Yard, this 667 sq ft two-bedroom apartment delivers contemporary open-plan living with a private balcony and far-reaching town views. The dual-aspect reception room floods the space with light; patio doors create a direct indoor–outdoor flow. The principal bedroom includes built-in wardrobes; the second bedroom is well-proportioned for a home office or guest room. The property is offered with a 25% shared ownership route as well as full purchase options.
Transport and local amenities are standout features: Ealing Broadway station (Elizabeth Line, Central and District lines) is moments away, and the development sits within a busy retail and dining quarter with parks and good primary schools close by. The building is modern and low-maintenance, suited to buyers who prioritise location, connectivity and a ready-to-live-in finish.
Buyers should note the practical costs and local context plainly. Service charge is currently £314.16pcm (approx. £3,769.92pa). Council tax is above average for the area. The apartment sits in a neighbourhood with higher crime levels and measurable deprivation indicators; purchasers should factor local safety and resale considerations into their decision. Heating is provided via a community scheme rather than an individual boiler, which may affect running costs and control.
Leasehold details: the original lease runs 125 years from 7 August 2017 (around 116 years remaining). No ground rent is payable. The layout is efficient but has a single bathroom, which may influence suitability for some families. Overall, this is a convenient, modern urban flat that will suit first-time buyers or buyers seeking a well-located pied-à-terre, with transparent costs and community considerations to weigh up.
