Summary - Flat 40 Alexandra Court, 171-175, Queen's Gate SW7 5HQ
4 bed 4 bath Flat
Large Edwardian flat in South Kensington — substantial living space close to museums and transport..
5th floor apartment with lift and resident porter
An impressive 2,185 sq ft apartment set on the fifth floor of an attractive Edwardian mansion block on Queen’s Gate, moments from South Kensington’s museums and transport links. The reception room faces south, with high ceilings, large windows and room proportions suited to formal entertaining or flexible living. The layout includes a well-equipped kitchen, separate dining room, principal suite with en suite, two further double en suite bedrooms and a fourth en suite room adaptable as a bedroom, office or dressing room.
The building offers lift access, a resident porter and a gated courtyard entrance, reflecting the address’s premium position and strong central-London appeal. The long lease (c.959 years) removes typical short-lease concerns and the flat’s size and configuration make it attractive to families or buyers seeking substantial central living space with rental or capital-growth potential.
Buyers should note some material considerations: the property is leasehold and carries a high annual service charge (£15,747) and very expensive council tax, which significantly affect running costs. The main heating is via a community scheme and the building’s solid-brick construction likely has limited wall insulation. There are also fire-safety matters disclosed that prospective purchasers should review in full before proceeding.
Overall, this is a rare, generously proportioned flat in a prestigious South Kensington location — excellent for an owner-occupier family wanting central space or an investor targeting prime rental demand — provided the ongoing service costs and disclosed safety matters are acceptable.
