Set directly opposite Hyde Park in a portered Art Deco block, this three-bedroom flat combines classic proportions with a central London location. High ceilings and a very generously sized reception room create a bright, flexible living space ideal for family life or professional sharers. Large windows frame park views and the building provides 24-hour porterage for daily convenience and security.
The apartment has three bathrooms and a compact contemporary kitchen with built-in appliances. Double glazing was installed after 2002 and the building benefits from a community heating scheme; fast broadband and excellent mobile signal support modern working and leisure needs. Marble Arch and Oxford Street are within a short walk, with strong cultural and shopping amenities nearby.
Important practical points: the flat is leasehold with 96 years remaining, a substantial service charge of £12,000 pa and a ground rent of £200 pa. The building dates from the 1930s–40s and walls are original solid brick (no added cavity insulation assumed), so further thermal upgrades may be limited without major work. Local crime levels are above average for the area.
Overall, this is a rare central London home for buyers who prioritise location, space and concierge services. It suits families or professionals who will use the park, West End amenities and transport links frequently, and who are comfortable with higher running costs linked to the building’s services.
