Much scope for a character-filled overhaul in Brondesbury near Kilburn transport links.
Approximately 1,319 sq ft across raised ground floor, four bedrooms
A rare raised ground-floor flat with substantial refurbishment potential in prime Brondesbury. The apartment extends to about 1,319 sq ft, with four bedrooms, high Victorian ceilings, a marble fireplace and stained-glass windows — period character that will reward a sympathetic full renovation. A large living room opens via double doors to a private section of garden, creating clear scope for indoor–outdoor living once modernised.
The layout is flexible: two large doubles, a smaller double and a single/office, plus a basement room suitable for utilities or storage. The separate kitchen and single bathroom mean buyers can reconfigure spaces and add value through remodelling. Construction is solid brick (likely uninsulated), and the property retains original features such as timber floorboards and bay windows that will appeal to buyers seeking character.
Important drawbacks are factual and significant: the lease has around 70 years remaining, which may prevent some mortgage lenders from lending and will limit resale options without extension. The flat needs full renovation throughout, and the building appears to lack modern insulation. Service charge and fees apply (service charge approx. £2,524 p.a.; ground rent £100 p.a.). The area records higher crime levels and local deprivation metrics, so buyers should factor security and community considerations into plans.
For buyers who can manage a refurb or an investor prepared to extend the lease and complete works, this is an opportunity to create a substantial NW6 home in a sought-after Brondesbury location. Excellent transport links to Kilburn and central London, nearby schools with good ratings, and private garden access add to the long-term appeal once practical issues are addressed.
