Ready-to-live-in Victorian conversion near Shepherd's Bush transport and Westfield shopping..
First-floor one-bedroom flat, 440 sq ft (41 sq m)
Bright, compact and carefully refurbished, this first-floor one-bedroom flat sits within a converted Victorian mid-terrace on St Stephen’s Avenue. The open-plan reception and kitchen benefit from a large sash-style window and high ceiling with decorative chandelier, making the most of 440 sq ft of living space. The bedroom includes fitted wardrobes and there is an en suite shower room — a sensible low-maintenance home for city living.
Practical strengths include a very long lease (circa 977 years remaining), share of freehold ownership and proximity to Goldhawk Road and Shepherd’s Bush stations, plus Westfield shopping and local amenities. Broadband and mobile signals are strong, and the property’s modern kitchen and well-presented interiors mean it’s ready to move into or let out immediately.
Be clear on the material considerations: the building’s solid brick walls are likely uninsulated, the double glazing predates 2002 and the EPC is a D. The area records higher crime levels and relative deprivation; this flat has no private outdoor space and faces a typical urban street scene. Service charges are handled on an ad hoc basis and split between three flats — this can mean variable costs year to year.
This home suits a first-time buyer seeking a manageable, low-upkeep London base or an investor targeting steady rental demand near good transport links. If you value a long lease, central location and move-in condition, this offers straightforward, compact living — but budget for potential energy improvements and be realistic about the urban setting and associated local issues.
