A spacious top-floor one-bedroom flat in the heart of Knightsbridge, directly opposite Harrods and surrounded by high-end shops, restaurants and transport links. The apartment (approximately 690 sq ft) has well-proportioned rooms, original-style character from its circa 1900–1929 construction and clean, modern finishes including wood floors, a sleek separate kitchen and contemporary shower room. Strong short‑term rental or long‑let demand is supported by the postcode and local amenities.
Important practical points are clear: the building lift serves only to the third floor, so access to this fourth-floor flat requires a final flight of stairs. The property is leasehold (134 years remaining) and is currently owned by a BVI-registered company, which can be purchased separately. Council tax is described as quite expensive and local broadband speeds are average; mobile signal is excellent.
Buyers should also note local negatives plainly: the area records very high crime levels and the building’s timber-frame walls are assumed to lack insulation, which may affect thermal performance and future retrofit costs. EPC rating C is reasonable for central London but any buyer planning longer-term ownership should factor potential upgrades and service/maintenance costs into their budget.
Overall, this is a prime-location one-bedroom with strong location-driven value and clear income potential for investors or owner-occupiers seeking central Knightsbridge living — but with tangible access, cost and retrofit considerations to weigh before committing.
