Set on a quiet, tree-lined Knightsbridge terrace, this one-bedroom apartment occupies a generous first-floor position in a handsome 1886 red-brick building. High ceilings, bay windows and decorative mouldings give the reception and bedroom a strong period character, while French doors and a long balcony overlook the secluded communal garden.
The layout delivers comfortable living: a large reception with dining area, galley kitchen and a double bedroom with an adjacent bathroom. Residents hold a share of freehold with an extremely long lease (circa 970 years), which reduces long-term ownership risk and makes this attractive to buyers seeking tenure security in central London.
Practical notes: heating is by electric room heaters rather than a central system, and walls are assumed to have no insulation. Service charges are above average at £5,246 per year and council tax is described as quite expensive. Crime levels in the immediate area are reported as very high, although the building is set back and the communal garden is sheltered by surrounding mansion blocks.
This flat will suit a buyer who values historic proportions, central location and garden access — ideal for a downsizer or a buyer seeking a well-located pied-à-terre. It offers strong potential for sympathetic updating, while the long lease and share of freehold provide ownership stability unusual for central London flats.
