Tucked on the quiet side of a well-kept red-brick mansion block, this two-bedroom first-floor flat brings central London convenience with a peaceful outlook. A private balcony faces the landscaped communal gardens, and the lounge provides a comfortable space for everyday living or relaxed entertaining. The property benefits from a daytime concierge and a secure underground parking space — unusual for this location.
Accommodation includes two generous double bedrooms, a modern bathroom with separate WC, and useful built-in storage. The flat sits within a community heating scheme and has double glazing (installation date unknown). The lease has 105 years remaining, offering long-term security for owner-occupiers or investors targeting central London demand near universities and transport hubs.
Buyers should note some practical considerations. The building dates from the early 20th century and has solid brick walls assumed to be uninsulated, which could mean higher heating costs despite the community heating. Council tax is described as expensive and the area records very high crime levels, which may concern some households. The communal nature of heating and parking may involve service charges — factor these into running costs.
Overall, this flat suits a buyer seeking a secure, well-located West End base with outdoor space and parking — attractive to first-time buyers, professionals, or investors wanting reliable rental appeal close to Russell Square and Holborn.
