First-floor two-bedroom flat in Mapesbury Conservation Area
Set on the first floor of a handsome period mansion block in the Mapesbury Conservation Area, this newly renovated two-bedroom flat pairs classic features with contemporary finishes. A bright reception room with ornate fireplace, quality wood floors and bespoke shutter blinds creates an immediately welcoming living space. The kitchen sits neatly behind sliding doors and includes integrated appliances and granite worktops for low-maintenance cooking.
Both double bedrooms include fitted wardrobes, and a well-appointed three-piece bathroom completes the layout across approximately 643 sq ft. The property benefits from a private garden and excellent local transport links — Kilburn (Jubilee) and Brondesbury Overground are a short walk away, with Kilburn High Road’s shops and cafes close by.
Practical details to note: the flat is leasehold with around 100 years remaining, an annual service charge of about £3,913 and a moderate council tax band. The building is of solid brick construction and may lack modern wall insulation, so heating efficiency could be lower than newer builds despite mains gas central heating.
This home suits a first-time buyer seeking a characterful, move-in-ready London flat with good connections and long-term potential. Be aware of higher local crime statistics and the service charge when budgeting, but otherwise the property offers a rare combination of period charm and contemporary convenience.
