Summary - Flat 1, 42 Great Cumberland Place W1H 7TP
2 bed 2 bath Flat
Spacious period apartment near Hyde Park with 125-year lease.
Dual-aspect south-west reception room with abundant natural light
Spacious two-bedroom apartment set in a handsome Georgian terrace, offering 1,118 sq ft of well-proportioned living space and high ceilings. The dual-aspect, south-west facing reception room floods the home with daylight and provides an elegant entertaining area linked to a modern kitchen. With two double bedrooms and two bathrooms, the layout suits sharers, small families or professionals seeking a central Marylebone base.
Practical strengths include a newly granted 125-year lease and contemporary fittings in the kitchen and bathrooms. The building benefits from a community heating scheme and mains gas; windows have secondary glazing. Its central position north of Marble Arch places Hyde Park, Portman Village and excellent transport and amenities within easy reach.
Notable costs and constraints are factual: an annual service charge of £9,586 and a high Council Tax band (G) will add materially to ownership costs. There is no private outdoor space and the area reports very high local crime levels — important for buyers to investigate further. The building is a period construction (pre-1900) with solid brick walls and likely limited wall insulation.
This home will appeal to buyers wanting period character and generous proportions in a prime central location, who can accommodate higher ongoing service and tax costs. Interested parties should verify service charge details, community heating arrangements and local safety data prior to committing.
