Set within a mid-19th-century stucco townhouse on Prince's Square, this one-bedroom apartment combines period character with an open-plan layout for city living. High ceilings, decorative cornicing and large windows give a strong sense of space across the 531 sq ft, while the building’s listed status preserves its historic features.
Practical points for buyers: the building is listed (which can restrict alterations), tenure is not specified, and the property is served by a community heating scheme. Annual ground rent is listed at £500 and an estimated service charge of about £7.50 psf applies. On-street parking is available by permit; a video entry system, lift access and concierge add convenience.
Location is a major draw — close to Hyde Park, excellent transport links and a wide choice of highly regarded independent schools and amenities. The area benefits from ongoing W2 regeneration and significant local investment, which supports long-term value, though local crime is reported above average.
This apartment suits a buyer looking for a centrally located one-bedroom with Victorian character and immediate rental or owner-occupation potential. Buyers should factor in listed-building constraints and possible maintenance or retrofit work (insulation appears lacking), and confirm tenure and full service charge details before proceeding.
