Bright two-bedroom apartment on the Hyde Park Estate, arranged around a generous reception room overlooking a well-kept communal garden. The reception benefits from striking feature windows and enough space for a dining area, making it a comfortable social hub for entertaining or working from home.
The kitchen is modern and well maintained with integrated appliances; both bedrooms are doubles with fitted wardrobes and there is plentiful built-in storage. The bathroom is in pristine condition, and the property is on a long lease (178 years), reducing near-term lease-related costs.
Practical considerations include electric room heaters rather than a communal gas system, cavity walls likely without added insulation, and a relatively high service charge and ground rent. The development has lift and porter service, and transport links to Paddington and Edgware Road are excellent for city and rail connections.
This apartment suits professionals or first-time buyers seeking a central London base close to Hyde Park, Paddington station and Oxford Street. It also offers straightforward rental potential for investors, though running costs and local crime levels should be weighed when budgeting.
