Well-presented two-double flat in central W14, minutes from Kensington High Street.
Two double bedrooms, second-floor period conversion
Set on the quiet, sought-after Elsham Road, this well-presented two-double-bedroom flat occupies the second floor of a period conversion. The open-plan living area and bay-windowed principal room bring natural light through the apartment’s 651 sq ft, making it feel larger than the floorplan suggests. Share of freehold ownership and an EPC rating of C are practical benefits in this central Kensington & Chelsea location.
The location is a major draw: moments from Kensington High Street and Westfield, with Central Line and Overground links nearby, excellent broadband and strong local amenities. Good and outstanding primary and secondary schools nearby will appeal to buyers planning for family life or long-term resale potential. The flat sits in a mature Victorian terrace in a cosmopolitan inner-city neighbourhood.
Buyers should note some practical considerations. The building has solid brick walls with assumed no cavity insulation and secondary glazing, so heating costs may be higher than modern equivalents. Service charges average £2,500 per year and council tax is above average. There is one bathroom and the property may suit couples, sharers or small families rather than those needing multiple bathrooms.
Overall this apartment suits a first-time buyer or couple seeking a characterful Kensington base with good transport links and nearby amenities, who are comfortable managing modest ongoing running costs and who value location over a fully modernised thermal envelope.
