Heating is via a community scheme and there are communal landscaped grounds rather than a private garden. The wider area scores as very deprived; crime levels are described as average. Prospective buyers should confirm exact internal condition, service charge details and communal provisions at survey/inspection.
For investors the vendor’s figures show an indicative rental income of c. £2,255 pcm (around a 5.4% gross yield), making it a straightforward buy-to-let in a desirable North Kensington address. For owner-occupiers this is a compact, contemporary city base with long lease security and immediate access to local amenities and green communal space.
