Light-filled, easy-to-manage one-bedroom apartment in Maida Vale, offered chain-free and ready for immediate occupation. Set on the top floor of a purpose-built Art Deco block, the flat combines period character — wood floors, sash-style windows and a decorative fireplace — with a separate contemporary kitchen and a small balcony for fresh air.
At about 544 sq ft the layout is practical: separate reception, double bedroom and a tiled bathroom. The location is a major selling point — under half a mile to Maida Vale (Bakerloo) and within walking distance of Kilburn Park and local high-street amenities. Good broadband and mobile signal make it convenient for modern working patterns.
Practical costs and constraints are clear: the flat is leasehold with 106 years remaining, an annual service charge around £1,300 and a ground rent of £250. There’s no private garden and outdoor space is limited to the balcony. The building’s solid-brick construction likely has little cavity insulation, so expect average energy efficiency unless upgraded.
This property suits a first-time buyer wanting a well-located London flat or a buy-to-let investor seeking reliable rental demand. It presents straightforward potential for cosmetic updates and energy improvements, but buyers should check service-charge details and factor in refurbishment costs for insulation or heating upgrades.
