Set within a red-brick Victorian terrace in the heart of Westbourne, this two-double-bedroom flat offers spacious, well-lit rooms across about 733 sq ft. The apartment is presented in good decorative order with a living room, fitted kitchen, utility, separate WC and a bathroom — a practical layout for everyday living or rental occupancy.
Practical benefits include gas central heating, double glazing (installed before 2002), excellent mobile signal and fast broadband — useful for home working or streaming. The property is offered with vacant possession and no onward chain, and the lease has a healthy 111 years remaining, which eases longer-term funding and ownership plans.
There are some material considerations to factor in. The building dates from the 1930s and has cavity walls with no added insulation (assumed), and the glazing is older, so there is potential for energy-efficiency improvements. The service charge is relatively high at about 2,069 pa and ground rent 150 pa. The local area records higher crime levels and is classified as deprived, which may affect some buyers’ preferences.
This flat will suit first-time buyers seeking a share of Westbourne’s village-style amenities, or investors looking for a centrally located rental in a busy urban neighbourhood. Nearby schools include strong options and the immediate area is rich in shops, cafes and transport links, putting daily conveniences on the doorstep.
