Quietly tucked on the first floor of a secure modern development, this one-bedroom flat offers bright, open-plan living and a private balcony. Large windows flood the reception area with light and deliver cityscape views, while the compact layout makes efficient use of 395 sq ft. The long lease (965 years) and double glazing are practical ownership advantages.
This property suits a first-time buyer or a buy-to-let investor seeking central Paddington location close to Marylebone, Westbourne Grove and major transport hubs including Paddington and Edgware Road. Local amenities are extensive, from shops and eateries to fitness and transport links, supporting ease of daily life or good rental demand.
Buyers should note material running costs: an above-average service charge (£6,004 pa) and a small annual ground rent (£250). Broadband speeds are very slow and heating is electric room heaters, which may increase utility bills. The surrounding area records high crime and local deprivation indicators, so viewings should consider personal security and lifestyle trade-offs.
Overall this is a modern, low-maintenance flat with genuine central location benefits and clear renovation or specification opportunities (improve heating and broadband) for those wanting to add value or tailor it as a long-term home or rented investment.
