This smart one-bedroom apartment occupies 551 sq ft in a quietly positioned Redcliffe Close address, offering a modern open-plan living area with breakfast bar and a well-appointed contemporary bathroom. The layout suits a single buyer or couple seeking a compact but stylish home in the heart of Kensington, with clean neutral finishes and good natural light throughout.
Location is a major strength: Earls Court, Gloucester Road and South Kensington stations are within easy reach, giving fast access across London. Cultural amenities — museums, Royal Albert Hall — and green spaces such as Kensington Gardens and Hyde Park are a short walk away, while Old Brompton Road provides cafés, shops and restaurants on the doorstep.
Practical positives include double glazing fitted post-2002 and share of freehold tenure. The building is mid-terrace, built 1900–1929, with solid-brick walls (assumed uninsulated) and a community heating scheme — useful for consistent warmth, but check running-cost arrangements and any communal service charges.
Considerations: the apartment is compact and best suited to those wanting a city-base rather than a large family home. The solid-brick construction likely lacks cavity insulation, so there is scope (and potential cost) for energy-efficiency upgrades. Confirm communal heating details, service charges, and any building maintenance plans before purchase.
