A spacious two-bedroom garden apartment set within a handsome stucco-fronted Victorian terrace, just steps from Hyde Park. The flat benefits from excellent lateral space and period details such as high ceilings and large windows in the principal reception/dining area, while a separate recently renovated kitchen includes Smeg appliances. Two double bedrooms both open directly onto a generous private garden, creating rare outdoor space for central London.
The property has been newly renovated throughout, including a refurbished bathroom and a separate WC, and presents as move-in ready. With 791 sq ft and 172 years remaining on the lease, the home suits buyers seeking central location, good school catchment options and strong transport links via Paddington and Lancaster Gate.
Buyers should note material costs of ownership: an above-average annual service charge of £5,600 and a small ground rent of £150. The building’s construction pre-dates 1900 and walls are timber-frame with no recorded insulation, which may mean future upgrade work to improve thermal efficiency. Heating runs off an electric boiler and radiators, which can be more expensive to run than gas alternatives.
The area is affluent and cosmopolitan with excellent mobile reception and many local amenities, but local crime levels are recorded as high—an important consideration for buyers prioritising security. Broadband speeds are average. Overall this is a characterful, centrally located home with private outdoor space and long lease length, best suited to families or buyers wanting a central base with garden access.
