Set on the first floor of a handsome red‑brick mansion block in the heart of Knightsbridge, this large one‑bedroom apartment offers classic period proportions and strong central‑London appeal. The reception room benefits from high ceilings, a bay/window feature and French doors to a small balconette; one balcony faces the communal gardens of Hans Place. Lift access and independent gas central heating add practical convenience for short‑term lets or a pied‑à‑terre.
The flat extends to approximately 711 sq ft and presents immediate rental or owner‑occupier potential thanks to its location 0.4 miles from Hyde Park and close to Knightsbridge amenities. A C‑rated EPC and traditional solid brick construction suggest good energy performance for the area, while secondary glazing helps with noise and thermal comfort.
Important practical points are clear and factual: the property is leasehold (c.124 years remaining), with an annual service charge of £9,523 and council tax at Band G — both significant running costs. The balconies are not demised as private garden space is limited; access to communal gardens may be arranged but is not guaranteed. The local crime statistic is very high for this postcode, which may affect certain buyer types and short‑term rental demand.
Overall this is a well‑located, characterful Knightsbridge apartment suited to a buyer seeking a pied‑à‑terre or an investor targeting premium central‑London lets. Expect standard maintenance for a historic masonry building and communal areas; buyers should budget for the service charge, council tax and confirm garden access and lease details before purchase.
