A compact lower‑ground studio in a handsome Victorian terraced townhouse on Elsham Terrace, minutes from Kensington Olympia and Holland Park. The main room benefits from a bay sash window and high ceilings that add light and period character; a separate fitted kitchen and bathroom keep living space uncluttered. Two external lockable storage rooms increase usable storage beyond the flat’s internal footprint.
This is a straightforward purchase for an investor or single occupant who values location over floor area. Fast broadband, excellent mobile signal and proximity to Central, Overground and District lines make the flat highly lettable. The long lease (959 years) and reported nil annual service charge/ground rent remove common leasehold concerns.
Be clear on the limitations: the accommodation is small (c. 396 sq ft), set on the lower‑ground floor, and has no private garden or notable views. The building is traditional solid‑brick Victorian construction with assumed minimal wall insulation; buyers seeking a fully modern thermal specification should budget for upgrades. The surrounding area records above‑average crime; check local detail if safety is a priority.
Overall, the property offers a low‑maintenance entry into a desirable West Kensington postcode — good for buy‑to‑let or a compact city base for a single occupant. Its strengths are location, lease length and character; its compromises are size, lower‑ground position and retrofit/insulation needs.
