- Prestigious Edwardian red-brick mansion block, opposite Lord’s Cricket Ground
- Porterage and communal parking area included
- Very long lease (957 years) offers ownership security
- Service charge £6,608 pa; ground rent £250 pa

Set within a prestigious red-brick mansion block opposite Lord’s Cricket Ground, this ground-floor one-bedroom apartment offers unusually generous proportions (716 sq ft) and authentic period features such as high ceilings and sash windows. The layout includes a wide entrance hall, a roomy reception, separate fitted kitchen and a double bedroom with built-in storage — a comfortable home or central London pied-à-terre.
Practical strengths include porterage, a very long lease (957 years) and communal parking area. Heating is provided via a community mains-gas scheme and there is no reported flood risk. The flat’s size and configuration create scope to reconfigure or update finishes to suit modern tastes while retaining character.
Buyer considerations are straightforward and important: the property is leasehold with a service charge of £6,608 pa and ground rent of £250 pa, and council tax is above average. The building’s solid brick construction likely lacks cavity insulation and the area records above-average crime — both worth factoring into running costs and any refurbishment plans.
This apartment will suit a buyer who values location, period character and space over a new-build specification. It offers strong short-term rental or owner-occupier potential in one of NW8’s most sought-after pockets, but budget realistically for service charges, local taxes and potential energy-efficiency works.
