Bright modern 1-bed with balcony and long lease, close to West Hampstead stations.
- Top-floor one-bedroom flat with lift access
A bright top-floor one-bedroom apartment offering about 620 sq ft of well-planned living space and a full-width private balcony. The open-plan kitchen/reception is modern and light, giving useful social space for a couple or single occupant. Lift access and communal gardens add convenience and outdoor options without maintenance responsibility.
Practical positives include a very long lease (985 years) and no onward chain, making purchase straightforward. The flat sits within easy walking distance of West Hampstead Jubilee and Thameslink stations, placing central London links and local shops, cafes and restaurants close to hand.
Buyers should note material running costs and local context: an above-average annual service charge of £4,004 and a £300 ground rent, plus slow broadband speeds recorded for the area. Crime levels in the immediate locality are described as very high and the wider area is classified as deprived; these factors are important for resale and rental considerations.
Overall this home suits a first-time buyer or investor seeking a ready-to-move-into, low-maintenance flat with strong transport links, generous outside space for the size, and a secure long lease. Budget for service charges and consider the local area issues when assessing long-term value.
