Summary - Flat 2, Richmond Mansions, Old Brompton Road SW5 9HL
2 bed 2 bath Apartment
Move-in ready Victorian flat with garden and long lease for first-time buyers.
South-facing private garden, rare in central flats
Sunny, characterful and ready to move into, this two-bedroom apartment sits on the ground floor of a handsome Victorian mansion block on Old Brompton Road. High ceilings, sash/bay windows and decorative cornices give a spacious, period feel while the south-facing private garden offers rare outdoor space for central London living. The layout includes two double bedrooms, two bathrooms, a reception room and a separate kitchen with plentiful built-in storage and a walk-in wardrobe.
Practical details are strong: share of freehold with a very long lease (970 years), off-street residents’ parking, and 832 sq ft of accommodation. The building is described as efficiently managed, and the location provides excellent local amenities, good schools nearby and fast broadband and mobile signal. This makes the flat suitable for first-time buyers wanting immediate comfort and long-term security.
Be aware of a relatively high annual service charge (£5,558.40 including a contribution to reserves) and an EPC rating of D. The building is solid-brick Victorian construction with assumed lack of insulation in the walls, so thermal upgrades could improve comfort and running costs. Council Tax is Band D (moderate).
Overall, this apartment offers a rare combination of period character, private outdoor space and practical long-lease ownership in a lively central location. Buyers looking for a move-in-ready home with potential to lower energy costs through targeted improvements will find this a persuasive option.
