Set within the landmark Grade II listed Marconi House on the Strand, this split-level one-bedroom apartment combines striking period volume with contemporary finishes. The duplex layout provides a bright reception with high ceilings and large period windows, a semi-open plan kitchen with Miele appliances, and a bespoke bathroom with an integrated TV. Home automation, underfloor heating and comfort cooling give modern convenience in a historic shell.
The property is well suited to a professional or investor seeking a central London pied-à-terre or rental asset. Its WC2R location places theatres, restaurants and major transport links on the doorstep, and the extremely long lease (c.983 years) removes long-lease concerns common in central London. The apartment is currently tenanted; photos were taken before the current tenancy.
Buyers should note material ownership costs and constraints. Service charges are high (noted at c.£14,603.58 p.a.), ground rent is £775, and the Grade II listing will restrict alterations and could complicate future refurbishment. Broadband speeds in the building are reported as very slow and the local area records very high crime rates. There is no private outdoor space and outlook is urban to the street.
