Set within a handsome period conversion on Pembridge Crescent, this one-bedroom flat pairs classic high ceilings and large sash windows with a practical layout. The raised ground-floor position delivers easy access and a pleasant garden outlook from the living room, making the most of the property’s Victorian/Georgian proportions.
At about 579 sq ft, the apartment feels larger than many one-bed alternatives in the area. It benefits from a long lease of 104 years and a share of freehold, offering long-term security for owner-occupiers. The location is a major draw — moments from Notting Hill Gate, Portobello Road and Westbourne Grove for shopping, dining and transport links.
There are some material points to note. Service charges are approximately £3,900 per year. The building dates from the early 20th century and the solid brick walls are assumed uninsulated, so further thermal upgrades may be needed to improve comfort and running costs. The local area records higher crime levels than average, which buyers should factor into their decision.
Overall this is a characterful, well-positioned one-bedroom that will suit buyers who prioritise location and period features, and who are comfortable managing modest compromise around building maintenance and running costs.
