Quiet period flat with balcony and long share-of-freehold lease.
360 sq ft one-bedroom apartment, compact layout
A well-presented one-bedroom apartment in a handsome period building on quiet Roland Gardens, ideal as a central pied-à-terre or starter home. The flat benefits from a private balcony, lift access and a long share-of-freehold lease (985 years), offering long-term security in a prime South Kensington postcode.
The interior is compact (approximately 360 sq ft) with a modern open-plan living/kitchen and high ceilings typical of the building. Fast broadband and excellent mobile signal suit remote working; local amenities, cafés and both South Kensington and Gloucester Road stations are walkable.
Material costs to note: an above-average service charge of around £6,000pa and an additional council tax described as expensive. Heating runs on a community mains-gas scheme; the building has double glazing of unknown installation date and solid brick walls likely without added insulation, so consider potential running-cost and retrofit implications.
Overall, this is a characterful, centrally located flat with strong convenience and long leasehold security. It suits a buyer seeking a compact central London base or rental investment, provided they account for the running costs and limited internal floor area.
