Summary - 26 Westminster Palace Gardens, Artillery Row SW1P 1RR
2 bed 2 bath Apartment
Large two-bedroom mansion block apartment in Westminster, minutes from St James’s Park.
Share of freehold with an exceptionally long underlying lease (approx. 986 years)
Set within a Grade II Listed red-brick mansion block, this spacious two-bedroom apartment offers generous rooms, high ceilings and abundant natural light across 1,134 sq ft. The principal suite includes a dressing area and en suite; the living room flows into a modern, integrated kitchen — a clear draw for buyers wanting grand, central London living without compromising on contemporary fixtures.
Practical conveniences include lift access, a day porter and a very long underlying lease with share of freehold. The property sits moments from St James’s Park station and the shops, restaurants and services of Victoria, Westminster and Mayfair, making it highly convenient for professional city life or a pied-à-terre.
Buyers should note the property’s Listed status, which will restrict external and some internal alterations and could complicate refurbishment plans. The current service charge is high (approx. £11,800 per year) and secondary glazing plus solid brick walls (likely uninsulated) mean some thermal and acoustic improvements may be limited by listing constraints. Crime statistics for the immediate area are recorded as very high — an important local consideration despite excellent connectivity and affluent surroundings.
This apartment will suit buyers seeking a characterful, large central-London home with period features and modern conveniences, or investors targeting premium central locations. It represents an opportunity to secure a rare, substantial apartment in a historic mansion block, provided purchasers accept the maintenance, listing limitations and running costs that come with such a building.
