Versatile garden flat with large studio — strong potential, lease requires attention.
Chain-free three-bedroom garden flat with private entrance
Set on a tree-lined North Kensington street, this chain-free three-bedroom garden flat combines period proportions with contemporary finishes across 973 sq ft. The apartment has a private entrance, bright reception with bay window, and a south-facing garden that draws sunlight into the living spaces. A separate utility room and two bathrooms (one en-suite) add practical convenience for family living or working from home.
A substantial detached studio and private garage (approx. 654 sq ft) sit off the garden with dual access to Malton Mews. That space offers genuine flexibility for home working, storage or conversion subject to usual planning and building consents—an obvious value driver for buyers seeking extra space or future income potential.
Important considerations: the lease has approximately 58 years remaining, which will restrict mortgage options and makes the property most suitable for cash buyers or purchasers prepared to pursue a lease extension. The immediate area records very high crime and higher levels of deprivation than average; buyers should factor this into safety, insurance and resale plans.
Positioned close to Portobello Road, local cafés and transport links (Ladbroke Grove station), the flat suits buyers prioritising central location, outdoor space and development upside. It offers a rare combination of private garden, substantial outbuilding and period character — but its financial and local-area realities should be weighed carefully before viewing.
