Large sash windows and high ceilings with Georgian character
Two double bedrooms with fitted wardrobes
Third-floor position with passenger lift and porterage
Needs modernisation throughout; renovation required
Very long lease — approx. 950 years
Service charge approx. £11,315 pa; council tax also expensive
Off-street parking first-come, first-served; limited availability
Set on the third floor of a red-brick period mansion block, this spacious two-bedroom apartment offers substantial living space (904 sq ft) and plentiful natural light from large sash windows. High ceilings and original architectural detail give the main reception an authentic Georgian character, ready to be updated to contemporary living standards.
Practical strengths include a very long lease (approx. 950 years), porterage, passenger lift, basement storeroom, guest cloakroom and off-street parking (first-come, first-served). The building’s communal courtyard garden and proximity to Regent’s Park and Primrose Hill make this a desirable central NW8 address, with easy access to St. John’s Wood and Swiss Cottage stations (Jubilee line).
The flat needs renovation and modernisation throughout; this is reflected in the price and presents scope to reconfigure or upgrade finishes and services. Buyers should budget for the high service charge (approx. £11,315 p.a.) which covers reserve fund, heating and hot water under a community scheme.
Important drawbacks are stated plainly: the property requires updating, service charges and council tax are expensive, and the local area records higher crime levels than average. Parking is limited and on a first-come basis. Overall, this is a roomy, well-located period apartment with long-lease security and clear potential for an owner-occupier or investor prepared to carry out modernisation.
