This compact one-bedroom flat sits in a gated Victorian development a short walk from Covent Garden Piazza. The building benefits from a traffic-free pedestrian setting, landscaped communal courtyard and retained period brickwork that give a strong central-London character.
The fitted kitchen is modern with marble-effect surfaces and integrated appliances; the flat is gas-heated via boiler and radiators and enjoys fast broadband and excellent mobile signal — practical for city living or rental. At about 350 sq ft, the apartment is efficiently arranged but genuinely small, suited to a single occupant or as an investment let.
Buyers should note the property is leasehold with 88 years remaining and an average service charge of £1,200. The building has solid brick walls with assumed no insulation and was constructed before 1900, so there may be ongoing maintenance or retrofit costs for thermal improvements. The area records very high crime levels and overall local deprivation indicators, which should be considered alongside the location advantages.
This flat offers immediate access to theatres, cafes, and transport links, making it attractive to short-term rental or professionals seeking central convenience. The combination of period character, a gated courtyard and proximity to Covent Garden presents clear upside for the right buyer, provided they accept the small footprint and leasehold considerations.
