- Long lease (967 years) and Share of Freehold
- Direct access to well-maintained private garden square
- Bright open-plan reception/kitchen with high ceilings
- Two double bedrooms with leafy square views
- Service charge £5,400 pa (above average)
- Area records very high crime — consider security needs
- Solid brick period building; likely limited wall insulation

Set on the second floor of a handsome white stucco terrace facing Leinster Square, this two-bedroom apartment blends period charm with modern fittings. Large sash windows and high ceilings flood the open-plan reception/kitchen with light and provide leafy views across the private garden square. With 689 sq ft of living space the layout feels roomy for central London living.
Practical strengths include a long lease (967 years), share of freehold status, integrated kitchen appliances, and a well-kept communal garden directly accessible to residents. Heating is provided by a mains-gas boiler and radiators; broadband and mobile signal are both strong in this location.
Buyers should note a relatively high annual service charge (£5,400) and the area records very high crime statistics — both factors to weigh for cost and security planning. The building is of solid brick construction and likely has limited wall insulation; some buyers may want to budget for energy upgrades or internal improvements.
This property will suit buyers seeking a characterful, light-filled central London home with garden-square outlook — ideal for professionals, couples or small families who value location and a long lease. It also holds interest for investors targeting resilient Notting Hill demand, provided service charges and local crime are taken into account.
