Summary - Upper St. Martin's Lane, Covent Garden WC2H 9NY
1 bed 1 bath Flat
Compact central flat with gated parking and lift access, ideal for investors.
Central Covent Garden location, minutes from Leicester Square station
This well-presented one-bedroom apartment sits in the heart of Covent Garden, moments from Leicester Square station and the West End theatres. The property occupies a mid-floor position within a purpose-built block, with lift access and gated private parking — a rare perk for central locations. Interiors include a spacious reception with arched timber-framed windows, a fitted kitchen, double bedroom with built-in wardrobes and a contemporary tiled bathroom. Secondary glazing has been fitted throughout.
Set on Upper St. Martin's Lane, the flat's compact 499 sq ft layout is efficient and straightforward, making it immediately lettable to professionals or short-term visitors. It is offered chain free, which simplifies a quick sale or investment purchase. Main services are mains gas with a boiler and radiators; double glazing upgrades were installed after 2002.
Buyers should note this is a leasehold property with 90 years remaining — important for long-term mortgage or resale planning. Council Tax is band F and described as expensive. The property sits in an inner-city, densely populated area with very high crime statistics and wider area deprivation indicators, which will affect family buyers and could influence some lenders or insurers.
Overall, this compact central flat offers clear rental appeal and practical central-london living, offset by lease length and local social factors. It suits an investor seeking central inventory or a single occupant wanting immediate access to Covent Garden amenities, provided they accept the location’s civic challenges.
