Perfect central base for commuters and professionals near Victoria transport links.
Newly renovated one-bedroom apartment, circa 449 sq ft
A bright, newly renovated one-bedroom apartment in a sought-after Edwardian mansion block, offered chain-free with a share of the freehold. High ceilings and large traditional windows create a light, airy living space; the finish is contemporary while retaining period mouldings and tasteful fixtures. Residents also benefit from use of the communal garden, ideal for city relaxation.
Practicalities are clear: the flat is compact at around 449 sq ft, on the third floor, and heated by electric room heaters rather than central gas. Service charge is high at approximately £4,500 a year, and the building’s solid brick construction likely lacks modern cavity insulation. The lease is long (c.994 years), which supports future saleability.
Location is a major draw — Westminster amenities, cafes and transport hubs (St James’s and Victoria stations) are within easy reach, making this an excellent base for professionals or couples who prioritise central living. Note the area records very high local crime levels, so prospective buyers should factor security measures into their plans.
Overall this is a well-presented, characterful city apartment that suits buyers seeking an elegant, low-maintenance flat in central Westminster, provided they accept higher running costs and a compact footprint.
