Light-filled two-bedroom apartment set within an attractive Victorian mansion block on Old Brompton Road. The flat sits quietly back from the street and opens onto a large south-facing private garden — a rare outside space in this part of SW5. High ceilings, sash/bay windows and original cornices give the rooms real character, while two modern bathrooms and fitted storage make it move-in ready.
Practical strengths include a very long lease (970 years), share of freehold, off-street residents parking and useful built-in storage including a walk-in wardrobe. The accommodation—about 832 sq ft—works well for couples, professionals or small families wanting easy access to central London and excellent local transport and amenities.
Notable running costs and building details are straightforward but important: an above-average service charge (£5,558.40 pa, including reserve contribution) and an EPC rating of D. The building is solid brick with assumed no cavity insulation, so heating costs can be higher than newer builds; heating is by mains gas boiler and radiators. Buyers should confirm service charge and lease details with their solicitor prior to exchange.
This is a characterful, comfortable home in an inner-city, cosmopolitan neighbourhood with excellent broadband and mobile signal, nearby schools (including highly rated secondary options) and a wide range of local shops, cafés and transport links. It suits someone seeking a period property with outside space and long-term security from the share of freehold.
