Summary - VICARAGE COURT FLAT 16 VICARAGE GATE LONDON W8 4HE
1 bed 1 bath Studio
Compact, characterful flat near parks and transport for central-living buyers.
Quiet rear first-floor studio with lift and porter
A bright, well-presented studio in a portered mansion block just off Kensington High Street. The main studio room benefits from high ceilings, large windows and a quiet rear aspect overlooking mature trees. The separate kitchen and generous bathroom make the flat feel more like a one-bedroom than a typical studio.
Practical conveniences include lift access, a porter, fast broadband and excellent mobile signal, plus easy walking distance to Kensington Gardens, Hyde Park and local transport. The building’s period character and solid construction are clear throughout the communal areas.
Buyers should note this is a leasehold with 88 years remaining and a modest ground rent of £150, which may affect mortgage options and future resale. The property is on a community heating scheme (mains gas), and the building’s original solid brick walls are likely uninsulated, so further thermal upgrades could be needed. There is no private outdoor space.
This flat suits a first-time buyer seeking central Kensington living or an investor targeting steady demand in a premium postcode. Be aware of the local area’s very high crime statistic and factor potential lease-extension or refurbishment costs into your purchase appraisal.
