Newly refurbished one-bedroom with communal gardens and excellent Paddington transport links—ideal central city buyers.
Recently refurbished throughout, turnkey condition
This recently refurbished one-bedroom apartment on Porchester Terrace North offers a stylish central-London base with period character and modern finishes. High ceilings and thoughtful detailing—wood panelling, quality flooring and integrated storage—make the most of the 502 sq ft layout, which includes a generous reception room overlooking the communal gardens and a bedroom with a walk-in dressing area.
Transport links are a clear strength: Paddington is 0.3 miles away and several Underground stations are within a short walk, giving fast access across the city. The flat is share of freehold, has a mains-gas boiler and radiators, and an EPC rating of C. Its proximity to Waitrose, cafés and green space (Kensington Gardens/Hyde Park) suits busy professionals wanting central convenience.
Notable practical points are set out plainly. The property is in an area with high recorded crime and broader local deprivation indicators. The service charge is above average at £4,214 annually. The building dates from before 1900 and has solid brick walls with no assumed cavity insulation, so heating costs and retrofitting limitations should be factored into long-term budgets.
Overall this is a turnkey, characterful one-bedroom that will suit a single professional, couple or a buyer seeking a central pied-à-terre. It offers immediate move-in quality and good rental or resale appeal, provided purchasers accept the higher service charge and central-London neighbourhood realities.
