Buyers should note practical matters: the property is leasehold with an above-average service charge of about £6,000 per year and council tax described as expensive. The building’s solid brick walls likely have no insulation, and double-glazing install date is unknown — future buyers may wish to budget for potential thermal or acoustic upgrades.

Its long lease and strong transport links make it a solid option for families, professionals or investors targeting central London demand.
