Compact SW-facing flat with lift and terrace potential near Portobello Road.
Gated mansion block with porter and manicured communal gardens
A compact one-bedroom apartment in a gated, portered mansion block on Colville Gardens, ideal for a first-time buyer seeking a central Notting Hill base. The south-west facing open-plan kitchen/reception benefits from good natural light and modern finishes, while wooden floors and recessed lighting create a contemporary feel.
Practical features include a lift to the third floor, double glazing and a long lease of 97 years. The seller has investigated buying the un-demised flat roof and installing French doors to create a private terrace, offering clear upside subject to permissions and purchase of the roof rights.
Buyers should note the apartment is small (around 23 sqm) and uses electric room heaters; the building’s solid brick walls likely lack insulation. Annual service charge is substantial (around £2,549 average) and ground rent is £60. The local area scores high for crime and some parts are relatively deprived despite excellent transport and amenities.
This property suits someone wanting a well-presented, low-maintenance pied-à-terre or a starter home with potential to enhance value if the terrace project proceeds. Factor in service costs and the need for potential heating/insulation improvements when assessing affordability.
