Summary - Acre House, Long Acre, WC2 WC2E 9JS
2 bed 2 bath Apartment
Well-serviced flat with long lease and strong rental potential.
Covent Garden location with excellent transport links
A rare two-bedroom apartment in the heart of Covent Garden, offered with long lease security and building services that suit lettings or central London living. The flat sits within a handsome Victorian building and benefits from concierge, lift access, a private storage locker and off-street residents’ parking — practical extras in this part of WC2.
Internally the accommodation is well presented with two bathrooms, double-glazed windows and an open-plan living area overlooking the city. At 638 sq ft the layout is a comfortable size for professionals or a small family; the apartment’s EPC C and recent glazing are positive for energy performance compared with older stock in the area.
Buyers should note running costs and some local issues: the service charge is above average (£7,700 pa), ground rent is £500 pa and council tax is above average. Heating and main fuel are electric with boiler/radiators, which can increase energy bills compared with gas-heated homes. The building dates from before 1900 with solid brick walls and assumed no cavity insulation — there is clear scope (and cost) for thermal upgrades.
Location is the property’s strongest asset: Covent Garden’s shops, theatres and transport links are on the doorstep, with fast broadband and excellent mobile signal supporting modern living. For investors the area sustains strong rental demand; for owner-occupiers it delivers a vibrant central-London lifestyle, but both should balance the premium service costs and local crime statistics when assessing value.
