Set on prestigious St James’s Street, this first-floor lateral apartment combines period proportions with recent refurbishment. At 999 sq ft the flat feels generous for central London, with high ceilings, an ornate fireplace, bespoke joinery, and two private balconies that bring fresh air and street views. Modern comforts include air conditioning, triple glazing and lift access, with a porter on the premises.
The accommodation is well laid out for flexible use: a large principal bedroom, a second bedroom that works as a guest room or dressing room, a spacious reception room for entertaining, and a contemporary kitchen and newly fitted bathroom with a walk-in shower. With 999 years remaining on the lease, the tenure is long and straightforward for buyers seeking a central pied-à-terre or long-let investment.
Buyers should note the heating is electric room heaters rather than a communal gas system, which can increase running costs. Council tax is described as quite expensive and the immediate area records very high crime levels, both factual considerations for residents and short-let operators. There is no private garden; outdoor space is limited to the balconies.
Well connected to Green Park and St James’s Park, and a short walk to Mayfair and the West End, the property suits those wanting immediate access to central London’s amenities. The combination of classic detailing and contemporary finishes supports strong appeal for professional buyers, investors, or downsizers seeking a stylish central base.
