Summary - Ground Floor Flat, 5 Lancaster Drive NW3 4EY
2 bed 1 bath House
Light-filled open-plan living near Belsize Park and Swiss Cottage transport.
Two double bedrooms and one bathroom, suitable for small households
This raised ground-floor apartment pairs period charm with contemporary living. High ceilings and large bay windows flood the open-plan kitchen and reception with natural light, while hardwood floors and a modern finish create an immediately usable home for a first purchase.
Measuring around 711 sq ft, the layout offers two double bedrooms and a single bathroom — comfortable proportions for a couple or small family seeking a central NW3 base. The property sits in a sought-after pocket close to Belsize Park and Swiss Cottage, with fast broadband, excellent mobile signal and a wide choice of independent and state schools nearby.
Buyers should note this is a leasehold flat (101 years remaining) with a service charge of £4,258 (above average) and ground rent of £250. The next service charge and ground rent review dates are unconfirmed, and council tax is above average — prospective purchasers should make their own enquiries.
The building is a mid-terrace constructed before 1900 with solid brick walls (no insulation assumed). There is no private garden. These factors present scope for sympathetic upgrading, but also mean heating and insulation should be checked if low-energy running costs are important.
