Set within the gated Water Gardens development on Norfolk Crescent, this fourth-floor two-bedroom flat offers generous lateral living (approx. 1,092 sq ft) and a bright reception with balcony overlooking mature trees. The apartment has been fully refurbished to a high standard: herringbone wood floors, bespoke joinery, contemporary lighting and a high-spec kitchen with integrated appliances. Lift access, porterage and communal gardens add convenience and a sense of privacy in a central location close to Hyde Park and transport.
Accommodation is arranged for easy everyday living and entertaining, with distinct dining and reception zones and two double bedrooms served by a modern bathroom and a guest WC. The long lease (150 years) and well-presented interiors reduce immediate maintenance needs, making the flat suitable for professionals or a small family seeking a roomy central London base.
Buyers should note the material running costs: a very high service charge (around £13,000 pa) and an expensive council tax band will materially affect monthly outgoings. The building’s construction era suggests limited external wall insulation and glazing is secondary, which could increase heating costs despite the mains-gas boiler and radiators. Crime levels in the area are reported above average; buyers may want to review local safety and security arrangements and the exact parking rental terms for the underground spaces.
Overall, this is a stylish, spacious two-bedroom apartment in a desirable Hyde Park pocket, offering turnkey accommodation and communal amenities, but with significant service costs and some thermal- and security-related considerations for buyers to weigh.
