This stylish one-bedroom flat sits in the heart of Covent Garden, offering bright open-plan living, a modern fitted kitchen and attractive wood flooring throughout. Large windows flood the reception with natural light and the accommodation is practical for city living at around 500 sq ft. A private off-street parking space and secure building with lift add convenience that’s rare in the West End.
The flat is leasehold with approximately 90 years remaining; the service charge is above average at £5,076 per year and ground rent is £50. The building is well presented but buyers should factor in ongoing estate charges and the limited lease term when budgeting. The location delivers excellent transport links, strong rental demand and easy access to theatres, restaurants and shops.
Local indicators are mixed: this is an inner-city, multicultural student neighbourhood with very high recorded crime and an area classified as deprived. For investors or city professionals seeking central West End exposure the flat offers rental and lifestyle appeal; for owner-occupiers, particularly those seeking quieter streets or family-friendly suburbs, the location’s bustle and safety statistics are important considerations.
Overall, the property is best suited to someone prioritising central location, convenience and modern, low-maintenance living — ideally an investor or a single professional who values proximity to Covent Garden and Soho, and who understands the implications of the lease length and service charges.
