A well‑located one-bedroom fourth-floor apartment with a lift, set directly opposite Queen Square in the heart of Bloomsbury. The flat totals approximately 578 sq ft and benefits from high ceilings, large bay windows and strong south-facing natural light — attributes that enhance room proportions and rental appeal. The building is an attractive Edwardian block with well-kept communal areas.
The property requires full updating and redecoration; worn carpets and dated finishes are evident. Heating and hot water are provided via a community scheme included in the quarterly service charge, which is above average. The lease has approximately 114 years remaining, making this suitable for long-term ownership or letting.
This address offers immediate access to Russell Square Underground, the Brunswick Centre, King’s Cross St Pancras and several universities, placing it squarely within a multicultural student neighbourhood with strong lettings demand. Notable running costs include a service charge of about £1,792.99 quarterly, council tax Band D (circa £2,107 pa) and a small ground rent of £80 pa.
Buyers should note the area records very high crime levels and the flat currently needs renovation, which will require budget and time. For investors or buyers seeking a central one-bedroom with period character and refurbishment potential, this apartment presents clear upside once modernised.
