Summary - St. Andrews Chambers, Wells Street W1T 3PJ
1 bed 1 bath Apartment
Light-filled one-bedroom in the heart of central London for city living.
Top-floor, west-facing apartment with plentiful natural light
Set on the top floor of a red-brick period block in central Fitzrovia, this bright west-facing 1-bedroom apartment offers a light-filled, characterful home or city pied-à-terre. Large sash-style windows and hardwood floors create an appealing living space for a single occupant or couple who want immediate access to shops, restaurants and excellent transport links.
The apartment is offered with a long lease (c.146 years remaining) and modest ground rent, which supports secure ownership. Service charges are listed at £2,708 pa; council tax sits in Westminster band E. At around 498 sq ft the layout is typical for central London: well-proportioned rooms but no external garden or outdoor space.
There are some practical issues to note: the building has single glazing and timber-frame walls with assumed no insulation, so thermal performance and noise reduction are likely limited. The area records a very high crime rate, which may concern some buyers and should factor into insurance and security decisions. The property suits buyers seeking a central, low-maintenance base rather than those wanting a family garden or a fully modernised shell.
Overall, this apartment is a convenient, character-filled option for a first-time buyer, city professional or investor looking for central Fitzrovia proximity to universities, major tube stations and local amenities. The flat’s condition and certain fabric limitations present clear upgrade potential for anyone wanting to improve energy efficiency and soundproofing.
