Bright period living with outdoor space in a highly connected W2 location. This first-floor one-bedroom flat offers generous proportions thanks to 3.5m ceilings and large windows that flood the principal room with light. The reception opens onto an east-facing balcony and a spiral staircase leads to a private roof terrace, providing valuable outdoor space for central London living.
The apartment measures around 598 sq ft and includes a separate kitchen, one bathroom and good built-in storage. A long lease (969 years) and nominal ground rent (£1) give ownership security. It sits in a handsome stucco terrace moments from Hyde Park and within easy walking distance of Paddington station and frequent transport links — ideal for commuting.
Be transparent about the property’s practical considerations: the building dates from before 1900 and has solid brick walls with no assumed insulation, which may affect heating efficiency. Council tax is above average for the area, and reported local crime levels are high; these are important factors to weigh alongside the apartment’s central convenience and character.
This home suits a buyer wanting classic period features with modern convenience — a confident first-time purchaser or investor seeking a well-located one-bedroom with private outdoor space. The layout and high ceilings also present clear potential for cosmetic updates to personalise the space and improve energy performance.
