- Low service charge and affordable council tax (Band C)

Set on Marchmont Street, this compact two-bedroom period flat occupies the second floor of a well-maintained conversion with a gated entrance. High ceilings and original period details brighten the living space while a modern boiler and radiators provide mains-gas heating. The property is chain-free with a long lease (112 years) and low service charges, simplifying purchase and ongoing costs.
At 388 sqft the accommodation is small and arranged in a traditional layout with one bathroom. Its size and inner-city location — a few yards from the Brunswick Centre, Russell Square and major transport hubs — make it well suited to a purchaser seeking central living or rental income in a multicultural, student-oriented neighbourhood. Broadband speeds and mobile signal are excellent, supporting both lettings and home working.
Buyers should note material constraints: the flat is compact, has solid uninsulated brick walls (typical of pre-1900 construction) and only one bathroom. The area records higher crime levels, which may affect some buyers’ preferences or insurance costs. There is clear potential for light refurbishment to maximise rental yield or personalise the space, but any major works should account for the building’s age and construction.
Overall, this is a practical, low-cost-to-run central London leasehold offering with strong proximity to amenities, transport and universities. It will appeal to first-time buyers wanting central access or investors targeting short-term lets and steady rental demand, provided they accept the flat’s modest footprint and urban location considerations.
