Positioned opposite one of London’s Royal Parks, this two-bedroom maisonette spreads across two levels and offers generous living space (circa 1,076 sq ft including terrace). The back-of-building location makes it unusually quiet for Old Brompton Road, and the open-plan eat-in kitchen/sitting room with high ceiling skylight provides a strong entertaining hub. Two separate bathrooms and plentiful storage suit sharers or a family seeking flexible accommodation.
Outdoor living is a clear selling point: the property includes two private spaces — a small courtyard patio off the sitting room and a balcony accessed from the master bedroom — ideal for a morning coffee or evening drinks. The building is period (built before 1900) with characterful solid-brick walls and double glazing; heating is mains gas via boiler and radiators.
Practical costs and items to check: the apartment is leasehold with 107 years remaining, a modest ground rent of £200 and an annual service charge of about £1,666. Council Tax sits at Band F (expensive). The walls are solid brick and likely uninsulated, which may affect heating costs and require improvement work if you plan upgrades. EPC is D.
Location and transport are strong assets: excellent mobile signal and fast broadband, low local crime, residents’ off-street parking, and an easy walk to the Underground, Old Brompton Road amenities and nearby top-rated schools. This is a well-sized, quiet capital flat with period charm and clear potential for cosmetic modernisation or insulation upgrades.
