Compact character flat near transport and Portobello Market.
Raised ground-floor one-bedroom flat with 467 sq ft internal area
A bright raised ground-floor one-bedroom flat in a handsome period conversion, offering classic high ceilings, wooden floors and a bay-windowed double bedroom. The open-plan reception/dining/kitchen layout makes efficient use of 467 sq ft, with good built-in storage and plenty of natural light throughout.
Located moments from Westbourne Park Underground and within easy walking distance of Portobello Road, Westbourne Grove and local cafés, the flat suits a first-time buyer who wants immediate access to Notting Hill’s shops and transport. Its position on the raised ground floor provides street-facing outlooks with glimpses of mature trees, lending a sense of calm in a busy area.
Practical points are straightforward: the property is presented in good condition with a low service charge and share of freehold. The lease has 88 years remaining — buyers should factor in lease length and potential future extension costs. The building’s solid brick construction likely lacks cavity insulation, so improving thermal performance may be a sensible medium-term project.
This apartment is a compact, characterful base in a prime west London pocket. It balances period charm and contemporary convenience, but interested buyers should check lease costs and plan for any energy-efficiency upgrades.
