Bright 2-bed new-build with excellent transport links and strong growth potential.
Approximately 852 sqft with treble aspect and large balcony
Bright, roomy and practical, this two-bedroom apartment in Kensal View spreads across approximately 852 sqft with a treble aspect and a large balcony that brings in generous daylight. The open-plan living/kitchen area, Italian-style fitted kitchen and built-in wardrobes are designed for low-maintenance modern living. A huge utility/storage cupboard adds rare apartment storage space. The development includes communal garden, children’s play area, lift access and secure cycle storage.
Transport links are a key selling point: Willesden Junction (Overground and Bakerloo line) is within walking distance, and the wider Old Oak Common regeneration promises major long-term infrastructure and employment growth. Mobile signal and broadband speeds are both reported as strong, supporting home working and streaming without compromise.
Practical drawbacks are set out clearly. There is only one bathroom for two double bedrooms. The local area records higher crime levels and an overall deprived classification — factors buyers should weigh when considering family safety and resale. Tenure is unknown; this will affect mortgage options and should be confirmed early. The property is a new build, so short-term maintenance needs should be minimal, but buyers should check warranty and service charge details.
This home will suit first-time buyers or couples seeking a spacious, well-specified apartment with good transport links and future capital-growth potential from nearby regeneration. Those prioritising low-crime neighbourhoods or requiring multiple bathrooms should note the limitations before viewing.
