This substantial fourth-floor mansion-block apartment occupies over 2,180 sq ft and combines generous lateral proportions with clear period character. High ceilings of circa 3 metres, large sash windows and decorative cornicing create a bright, airy living environment, while a west-facing balcony and direct views of Westminster Cathedral provide a distinctive central-London aspect. The layout includes a double reception room, a separate contemporary kitchen and four double bedrooms, two with en suite bathrooms.
The building offers practical benefits such as a dedicated porter, passenger lift and an extremely long lease (983 years). Energy performance sits at EPC C and the property uses mains gas with a boiler and radiators. Buyers should note several material costs: a high annual service charge (£12,140) and very expensive council tax. The building’s solid-brick construction (original, assumed without insulation) and period fabric mean maintenance and potential retrofit for improved insulation should be considered.
Positioned in a prestigious Westminster location, the apartment is a short walk from St James’s Park and Victoria transport hubs, with excellent broadband and mobile signal. The immediate area suits families and professionals who prioritise central location, spacious period rooms and strong local schooling options, but who are comfortable with significant service charges and central-London living considerations such as a very high local crime rate.
