A bright, characterful two-bedroom apartment on the second floor of a handsome Victorian mid-terrace in the heart of Covent Garden. The dual-aspect reception has high ceilings and large windows onto Garrick Street and Rose/Floral Street, creating generous natural light and classic period charm. At 656 sq ft the layout is compact but functional, suited to a pied-à-terre, central rental or small family bolt-hole.
The flat is in broadly good but dated condition and will benefit from modernization — cosmetic and systems upgrades would realign the property with West End market expectations and could add rental or resale value. The building is solid brick with assumed no cavity insulation, and glazing is secondary; opportunities exist for energy and heating improvements subject to leasehold and building consents.
Practical points are straightforward: leasehold with approximately 96 years remaining, annual service charge around £2,300 and ground rent about £300. Council Tax Band G is noted and on-street parking only. The location is exceptional for transport, theatres, shops and restaurants, and is moments from Covent Garden and Leicester Square stations.
Buyers should note material negatives plainly: the apartment needs renovation, the surrounding area records very high crime and is classified as very deprived, and there is no private outdoor space. These factors affect suitability depending on buyer priorities but can be weighed against strong central location and rental demand in the West End.
