A bright, chain-free two double bedroom maisonette arranged over ground and first floors, set within a mid‑century purpose-built block moments from Regent’s Park. The flat benefits from a long 98‑year lease, gas central heating, double glazing and a practical layout that includes a separate WC and useful under-stairs storage. At 744 sq ft the accommodation is an attractive size for central London living.
This home will suit a first-time buyer or investor seeking a well‑located property with immediate rental or occupation potential. Large windows and a Juliet balcony bring generous natural light to the main reception (currently used as a bedroom), while the fitted kitchen and white bathroom suite are functional and ready to use. Residents’ permit on-street parking and excellent transport links (multiple tube lines and national rail nearby) add practical convenience.
The flat does require some modernising — flooring and decor show wear and the building is of 1950s–60s construction with cavity walls likely lacking insulation. Service charge is £1,512 per year (approx. £126/month) and ground rent £10 p.a.; council tax Band C. Note the local area records higher crime levels, which prospective buyers should consider alongside the property's prime central location.
Overall this is a spacious, well‑proportioned maisonette in a sought-after NW1 location offering clear scope to add value through cosmetic improvement and energy upgrades, while providing immediate access to parks, schools and central London amenities.
