Refurbished raised-ground flat with porter and excellent transport links.
Large one-bedroom, approximately 639 sq ft
A bright, recently refurbished one-bedroom apartment in a portered Victorian mansion block, arranged over the raised ground floor. High ceilings and large windows flood the principal reception with light, while wooden floors and neutral decoration create a clean, move-in-ready interior. The separate modern kitchen includes integrated appliances and a washer/dryer; the bedroom is a generous double with built-in wardrobes and a contemporary bathroom with bath and separate shower. Total area about 639 sq ft.
Montagu Mansions sits in central Marylebone, a short walk from Baker Street and Marble Arch, with excellent transport links and immediate access to high-street shops, cafés and local amenities. The building’s portered service and historic red-brick façade contribute to central-London character and convenience.
Practical points to note: the property is leasehold with 934 years remaining, making it effectively long lease. Service charges are high at £8,242 per year and council tax is above average. Crime levels are reported as very high in the area, and the building’s original solid brick walls are assumed to have no added insulation.
This flat suits buyers seeking a well-presented central London base — a first home or pied-à-terre — who value location, character and concierge services. The property is newly renovated so requires minimal immediate work, but ongoing running costs (service charge, council tax) and local safety considerations should be factored into budgeting.
