This two-double-bedroom apartment on Kings Road offers a rare central Chelsea address with strong rental and resale appeal. At roughly 700 sq ft it has a large reception room, separate galley kitchen and a private entrance — practical for tenants or short-term lets. The property is sold chain free, simplifying purchase.
The location is the primary draw: opposite Bluebird and moments from shops, restaurants and transport at South Kensington. Built 1900–1929, the building has period character with a mid-century styled reception and a modern kitchen. Both bedrooms include built-in wardrobes and there is off-street parking with a Kensington & Chelsea permit.
Important considerations: the flat is leasehold with c.88 years remaining, which can restrict mortgage choices and affect valuation. Service charges are substantial (£9,200 pa) and council tax is above average. Heating is electric (ceiling heating), the walls are solid brick with assumed no insulation, and double glazing date is unknown — further energy-efficiency work may be needed.
For an investor, this apartment offers immediate rental potential in a high-demand postcode, but factor in running costs and possible refurbishment to improve EPC and long-term value. For an owner-occupier seeking central Chelsea living, the location and layout deliver convenience, though the lease length and charges should be reviewed with a solicitor.
