Summary - DORSET HOUSE FLAT 125 GLOUCESTER PLACE LONDON NW1 5AQ
1 bed 1 bath Flat
Light-filled 623 sq ft NW1 flat with long lease and porter — factor high service charges.
Fifth-floor one-bedroom with lift and 24-hour porter
A bright, well-presented one-bedroom apartment on the fifth floor of Dorset House, offering generous reception space and bay windows that flood the principal room with light. The flat’s 623 sq ft layout gives a roomy living/dining area, separate kitchen and a double bedroom — comfortable for a single occupant or couple. The block benefits from a lift and 24-hour porter, useful for everyday convenience and security.
Located in NW1, this flat sits in a prime central-London setting with excellent transport links, abundant local amenities and several highly regarded schools nearby. The long lease (approx. 166 years remaining) and central postcode make it straightforward to finance and appealing for long-term occupation or lettings in a strong rental catchment.
Buyers should note the material costs of communal upkeep: service charges are high (approx. £6,000–£8,000 p.a.) and heating is supplied via a community mains-gas scheme, which may limit control over running costs. The building dates from the interwar era and has solid brick walls likely without insulation, so there may be scope — and cost — for energy and noise improvements.
This property offers immediate move-in potential in a desirable location but suits buyers who factor in above-average service charges and communal heating arrangements. It will appeal to first-time buyers seeking space and convenience in central London, or to investors seeking steady demand, provided running costs are acceptable.
