Set within a Victorian mid-terrace on Finborough Road, this lower-ground two-bedroom flat offers 905 sq ft of contemporary living with a private west-facing garden. The open-plan kitchen/reception is bright thanks to skylights and large glass doors, creating a generous entertaining space that flows directly to a 22ft landscaped garden. The principal bedroom includes an ensuite, with a second family bathroom off the hallway.
The property is sold as a share of freehold with 98 years remaining on the lease — a positive for long-term ownership but below the 100-year threshold some buyers prefer. Service charge is approximately £1,800pa and ground rent is £250pa. The building dates from before 1900 with solid brick walls assumed to have no cavity insulation; the flat has double glazing installed before 2002 and mains gas heating via boiler and radiators.
This home suits a first-time buyer or professional couple seeking a modern, low-maintenance Chelsea base with outdoor space. Practical considerations: broadband speeds are average, the area records above-average crime levels, and the sub-100-year lease may require future extension budgeting. There is no flood risk and mobile signal is excellent.
Overall, the flat combines period building character with a contemporary fit-out and a sizable private garden — a compelling city-living package if you’re prepared to manage lease length and typical maintenance on an older building.
