Set within a distinguished pre-1900 building on Jermyn Street, this lateral three-bedroom apartment offers generous living space and period detail in the heart of St James’s. At approximately 1,455 sq ft the accommodation benefits from very high ceilings, elegant parquet floors, a feature fireplace and abundant south-facing light with Juliet balcony access from the reception and two bedrooms. The reception and dining areas flow into a modern fitted kitchen with pocket sliding doors for a flexible entertaining layout. Lift access and generous built-in storage add everyday convenience.
The apartment is presented with contemporary fixtures and comfortable finishes, including an en suite to the principal bedroom and a separate well-appointed bathroom. A long lease of 159 years gives tenure security, and the location places St James’s Park, Green Park station and major cultural attractions within easy walking distance — ideal for buyers seeking lifestyle and address. Mobile signal is excellent for city working, and the main fuel is a community mains gas heating scheme.
Buyers should note the principal running costs and practical limitations: a high annual service charge (£13,310) and very expensive council tax increase ongoing costs. Broadband speeds in the building are reported as very slow. The property’s historic construction means solid brick walls with little assumed insulation, which may affect thermal performance and future heating costs. Reported wider-area crime levels are very high — an important consideration for buyers prioritising local safety.
This apartment will suit purchasers who value a generous, characterful city home with classic proportions and central convenience and who are comfortable with the premium running costs associated with a prestigious St James’s address. It also offers potential for targeted upgrades (insulation, digital connectivity) for owners wishing to improve efficiency and comfort.
