Prime central location near transport and amenities for rental-focused buyers.
Two adjacent freehold Victorian buildings forming 18 apartments
Short walk to Earl’s Court Station (District & Piccadilly lines)
Sold vacant; currently undergoing full refurbishment
Total internal area c. 3,929 sq ft across both buildings
Recorded as having only one bathroom — significant upgrade likely
High local crime and area deprivation may affect lettings and costs
Solid brick pre‑1900 walls; likely no cavity insulation
Small plot size limits exterior expansion potential
This lot comprises two side‑by‑side freehold Victorian buildings on Longridge Road, offered as a vacant portfolio of 18 apartments currently undergoing full refurbishment. Located a short walk from Earl’s Court Station (District & Piccadilly lines), the properties sit in a central, amenity-rich part of Kensington & Chelsea with easy access to shops, cafes and transport links — attractive for rental demand and portfolio consolidation.
The buildings retain strong period character: high ceilings, bay windows and decorative facades. Recent works include double glazing installed after 2002 and an active refurbishment programme, creating scope to finish to a consistent specification for long‑term letting or resale. The combined gross internal area is about 3,929 sq ft across the two freeholds and the sale is in a vacant position, simplifying immediate redevelopment or letting strategies.
Buyers should note material considerations plainly. Crime levels in the area are recorded as high and the neighbourhood scores as deprived, which can affect lettings, insurance and management costs. Construction is pre‑1900 with solid brick walls assumed to lack cavity insulation; some thermal and acoustic upgrading may be required. Current records show only one bathroom for the whole property — this will likely need substantial reconfiguration to meet tenancy standards.
This opportunity suits investors or developers comfortable finishing a multi‑unit refurbishment in an inner‑city location. The site’s small plot limits expansion, so value will come from internal specification, professional management and targeting the local professional rental market.
