Set within a handsome Georgian terrace on Hyde Park Square, this two-bedroom, two-bathroom apartment occupies ground and lower ground floors and extends to approximately 1,005 sq ft. Period features — high ceilings, sash windows and original brickwork — combine with practical living space, a private ground-level terrace and residents’ communal gardens to deliver rare central-London outdoor space.
The layout separates social and sleeping areas: an upper ground reception and kitchen with terrace access, and lower-ground principal and second bedrooms (one ensuite) with a connected patio. Gas-fired boiler and radiators provide conventional heating; the building’s solid-brick construction reflects its 19th-century origins.
Important financing note: the flat is held on a short lease (34 years remaining). Many mainstream mortgage lenders will decline to lend on this basis, so buyers should be cash purchasers or secure specialist finance. Ground rent is reported at £500 and council tax is described as quite expensive — factor these holding costs into affordability calculations.
This property suits buyers seeking a characterful central-London home or a specialist investor/cash purchaser able to manage lease-extension work and associated costs. There is clear potential to enhance value through refurbishment and a lease extension, but those works and fees will be necessary considerations before purchase.
