This rare unbroken freehold in prime Kensington comprises 19 self-contained apartments across approximately 6,428 sqft, offering a straightforward income asset in a highly desirable postcode. The block is finished to a high standard internally with modern studio and one-bedroom layouts and sits within easy walking distance of Gloucester Road and Earls Court transport links and amenities. The local demographic of multi-ethnic professional service workers suggests strong tenant demand for well-presented, centrally located units.
For an investor, the property’s scale and single ownership simplify management and future repositioning. The apartments are suited to the AST rental market with potential for steady rental income and long-term capital growth given the location and local schools and services nearby. The building benefits from double glazing (install date unknown) and a community heating scheme, which can reduce tenant-level maintenance.
There are several material points to note. The dataset records only one bathroom for the whole freehold — this should be verified against title and floor plans. The building is of solid brick construction, likely without wall insulation, and was built before 1900; there may be fabric, thermal upgrade and compliance works required. Crime levels in the immediate area are above average and the wider area is flagged as deprived, which could affect tenant mix and management requirements.
This is a clear opportunity for a buyer seeking a rare, contiguous freehold in Kensington with immediate rental use and scope for value enhancement through targeted refurbishment and operational management. Any purchaser should commission a full physical survey and verify service, planning and fire-safety records prior to exchange.
