Summary - COSWAY MANSIONS FLAT 39 SHROTON STREET LONDON NW1 6UE
2 bed 1 bath Apartment
Characterful central apartment with private communal garden and excellent transport links.
Top-floor two-bedroom lateral flat, approx 668 sq ft
Bright top-floor two-bedroom apartment in Cosway Mansions, offering classic period features and a flexible lateral layout. High ceilings, sash windows and original mouldings give the reception a characterful feel, while both bedrooms look onto quiet communal gardens for a welcome city escape. At around 668 sq ft the space is well-proportioned for central London living or a pied-à-terre.
Practical strengths include an exceptionally long lease (972 years), mains gas boiler and radiators, and access to private communal gardens — a rare amenity in this location. The flat is a short walk from Marylebone and Baker Street stations, with plentiful local shops, cafés, and excellent schools nearby, which supports both owner-occupation and rental prospects.
Be clear about the material considerations: the building is solid-brick and likely uninsulated, which may mean higher heating costs and scope for thermal improvement. The property has double glazing of unknown installation date and a single bathroom serving two bedrooms. Annual service charge is approximately £2,800 with a small ground rent of £50.
The neighbourhood is highly central and well served for transport and amenities, but local statistics indicate high crime and very high area deprivation; buyers should consider this alongside the location benefits. Overall, the apartment suits first-time buyers seeking character and central convenience, and investors looking for a well-located rental — both should budget for potential improvement works to upgrade insulation and modernise finishes where desired.
