Set on the first floor of the desirable Ashworth Mansions, this spacious 1,040 sq ft apartment offers classic period proportions with modern practicality. High ceilings, sash windows and two balconies bring light and park views into principal rooms, while a large principal bedroom includes an en-suite shower room. The layout suits families or sharers seeking separate reception, dining and bedroom spaces.
Practical positives include long lease (994 years), share of freehold tenure, communal gardens, on-site caretaker and permit off-street parking. The property is a short walk to Paddington Recreation Ground, local shops and Maida Vale Underground Station, making daily life and commutes straightforward.
Important considerations are clear and factual: the annual service charge is £6,600 and ground rent is £200, which are material holding costs to budget for. The building dates from 1900–1929 with solid brick walls (no added cavity insulation assumed), and some upgrading or internal refurbishment may be desired to meet modern insulation or heating expectations. Local crime levels are above average and council tax is described as expensive.
Overall this is a bright, characterful period apartment with long-term tenure and park-facing balconies — suited to families or buyers wanting a spacious Maida Vale base with renovation potential and predictable communal management costs.
