Set within a handsome red-brick mansion block in the Bloomsbury Conservation Area, this first-floor one-bedroom apartment offers practical central-London living across approximately 510 sq ft. The apartment is sold chain free and suits first-time buyers, professionals wanting a central pied-à-terre, or buy-to-let investors seeking strong transport links and lettability.
The reception room benefits from high ceilings, natural light and hardwood floors, anchored by a coal-effect feature fireplace. The kitchen/dining area is bright with bespoke birch ply cabinetry and granite worktops; a separate utility cupboard houses the washing machine. Double-glazed sash windows and gas central heating (combi boiler) provide comfort and efficiency.
Residents enjoy access to a tranquil communal garden and seating area; gated parking spaces are available to lease from the freeholder (currently estimated at around £2.78 per week). The building has lift access and secure fob entry for added convenience.
Important practical points: the property is leasehold with about 96 years remaining, a modest ground rent (reported £10, details unknown) and is in an area with a higher crime rate — buyers should factor these into purchase, insurance and mortgage discussions. The apartment’s size and layout are well-proportioned but suit one or two occupants rather than larger families.
