Set on the second (top) floor of a red‑brick Victorian mansion block beside the Thames, this three‑bedroom flat offers generous lateral space and plenty of natural light. The large reception room with high ceilings and original period mouldings creates an inviting family living area, while two private balconies and access to communal gardens extend the living space outdoors.
Practical strengths include a share of freehold with a very long lease (980 years), two bathrooms and well‑proportioned bedrooms that suit family life or a high‑quality rental. The location is a strong draw: riverside pathways, Barnes Village nearby and good transport links at Hammersmith for Tube and M4 access. Several highly rated schools are within easy reach.
Buyers should note a higher annual service charge (£6,638) and council tax at Band E, which affect running costs. Broadband speeds are reported as slow. The building’s solid brick Victorian construction likely lacks modern cavity insulation, so heating and insulation upgrades could be considered to improve comfort and energy efficiency.
This apartment will suit buyers seeking a light, characterful family home or an investor after a spacious period property in a very affluent riverside pocket. It presents ready‑to‑enjoy living with sensible scope for targeted improvements to reduce running costs and modernise services.
