Set over a single level in a handsome early-20th-century building, this two-bedroom flat offers a bright, contemporary interior and generous living space. The 28-foot open-plan reception and modern integrated kitchen create a flexible heart for everyday life and entertaining, while two well-proportioned bedrooms include fitted storage.
Residents benefit from access to a well-kept communal garden and excellent local amenities on Kensington Park Road and Notting Hill Gate, with fast broadband and strong mobile signal. The property is offered as a share of freehold with an exceptionally long lease (963 years), a clear ownership advantage.
Be aware of a few practical considerations: the property participates in a community heating scheme and has mains gas; the building’s solid-brick construction likely lacks cavity insulation, which may affect heat retention. The service charge is relatively high at £5,480 per year, and the flat has a single bathroom. Local crime is recorded as above average, so check recent local data if safety is a priority.
This flat will suit buyers seeking a stylish, well-located home in Notting Hill — especially those prioritising living space and character over a turnkey, low-running-cost dwelling. With sympathetic upgrading (insulation, potential decor tweaks) it would make an excellent long-term home or a high-appeal city rental in a sought-after postcode.
