This bright, newly renovated first-/top-floor apartment in Notting Hill offers ready-to-live-in space for families or professionals. The open-plan living area is south-facing with high ceilings, large sash windows and dark hardwood floors that create a warm, airy reception and dining space. With three bedrooms and two bathrooms across split levels, the flat suits family life or sharers seeking convenience and privacy.
Practical points are clear: the property has a long remaining lease (143 years), modern boiler and double glazing, and benefits from very low local crime and fast broadband. Its 1,193 sq ft footprint is generous for central London; recently fitted wardrobes and a contemporary kitchen reduce immediate maintenance needs.
Notting Hill’s cafés, Michelin-starred restaurants, Kensington Gardens and several highly rated schools are within easy walking distance. Excellent transport links (Royal Oak, Bayswater, Notting Hill Gate, Paddington/Elizabeth line) make commuting and airports straightforward — a strong selling point for frequent travellers.
Buyers should note the flat is leasehold with an average service charge of £2,300 and a high council tax band, which add to running costs. The building is period brick construction with assumed solid walls and no known insulation upgrades, so heating costs may be higher than modern insulated buildings. There is no private garden visible and frontage is compact, so outdoor space is limited.
