Summary - Flat 10, 39-40 Queen's Gate SW7 5HR
1 bed 1 bath Studio
Compact, stylish flat ideal as a pied-à-terre or rental in a prime cultural quarter.
Bright raised-ground studio, newly renovated
Set on the raised ground floor of a handsome period building in South Kensington, this newly renovated studio delivers bright, contemporary living in one compact 332 sq ft layout. The open-plan kitchen and modern shower room are finished to a high standard, and built-in storage helps maximise the space for everyday use.
The flat benefits from a long lease (105 years), fast broadband, excellent mobile signal and a central location within walking distance of museums, restaurants and transport links. Nearby independent schools and cultural amenities make the area particularly sought-after for professionals and students.
Important practical points: the property is leasehold with a relatively high service charge (£5,500 pa) and a small ground rent (£140 pa). Heating is provided via a community scheme and the building’s solid-brick Victorian construction likely lacks modern cavity insulation, which could affect running costs despite the flat’s recent refurbishment.
This studio suits a buyer seeking a well-presented pied-à-terre or a central London rental proposition who understands the constraints of a compact home and the ongoing service costs that come with a desirable, managed building.
