A light, well-proportioned two-bedroom flat on the second floor of a handsome period building in the heart of Covent Garden. High ceilings and large windows create airy reception and living spaces, while the main bedroom benefits from a private en suite. The well-equipped modern kitchen supports easy everyday living and entertaining in this central location.
This property is ideal for someone seeking a central London pied-à-terre or an investment in a highly sought-after West End location. Covent Garden Market, Drury Lane theatres and Covent Garden Underground (Piccadilly Line) are all a short walk away, with an exceptional range of shops, restaurants and cultural amenities on the doorstep.
Buyers should note the flat is leasehold with a high ground rent of £1,500 per year and sits in a very high crime and very deprived area classification, reflecting the busy inner‑city setting. The building is solid brick and pre-1900 construction with older double glazing and assumed lack of wall insulation, so secondary insulation or upgrade works may be desirable for thermal efficiency.
Overall the flat offers strong central-location appeal, spacious rooms and period character, balanced against ongoing leasehold costs and potential retrofit needs. For those prioritising proximity to theatres, transport and West End living, this property offers immediate lifestyle benefits and rental or resale potential.
