Characterful one-bedroom flat near Hyde Park with excellent transport links.
Third-floor flat in Georgian period building with lift
Set on the third floor (served by a lift) of an imposing Georgian building, this well-presented one-bedroom flat combines period character with contemporary finishes. High ceilings and large windows flood the reception room with light; the layout includes a separate kitchen, modern bathroom and bedroom with fitted storage — comfortable accommodation for a single buyer or couple.
The location is a primary selling point: Stanhope Terrace sits between Lancaster Gate and Connaught Village, moments from Hyde Park and excellent transport hubs including Lancaster Gate and Paddington (including Elizabeth Line and Heathrow Express). Local cafes, shops and schools are within easy walking distance, making daily life highly convenient.
Practical considerations are straightforward but material. The flat is leasehold with about 80 years remaining — some mortgage lenders may refuse to lend and buyers should seek specialist advice. Service charge and council tax are above average; crime levels are noted as above average for the area. These factors affect running costs and resale/finance options.
Overall this apartment offers bright, characterful central London living with strong transport links and local amenities. It will suit a buyer who prioritises location, period charm and immediate move-in condition, but who is aware of lease length and ongoing charges before committing.
