Summary - Flat 1, Rosscourt Mansions, 4 Palace Street SW1E 5HZ
3 bed 2 bath Flat
Bright reception, three double bedrooms and short walk to Victoria Station and royal parks.
Opposite Buckingham Palace; unrivalled central location
Positioned directly opposite Buckingham Palace, this first-floor apartment combines striking central location with generously proportioned living. The large reception room features parquet flooring and big windows that flood the space with natural light, while three double bedrooms make this a practical city base or central family home. The separate modern integrated kitchen and sleek bathroom finishes keep living straightforward and comfortable.
Practical strengths include triple glazing, a long lease (167 years remaining) and a secure building in a very affluent neighbourhood. Victoria Station and multiple parks — St James’s Park and Green Park — are moments away, making commuting and green space access effortless. The property’s mid-20th century construction and traditional layout will suit buyers who want character alongside modern fittings.
Important considerations: the property is leasehold and carries a high service charge of around £9,000 per year. Heating is electric with a boiler and radiators, which can mean higher running costs compared with gas. Broadband speeds are reported as very slow, and local crime rates are very high — factors buyers should investigate further. The building’s solid brick construction is assumed to have no cavity insulation, which may affect long-term energy performance and upgrade costs.
Overall this is a rare Westminster location offering immediate access to London’s central amenities and transport hubs. It will suit purchasers prioritising location and light-filled living rooms, and those prepared to budget for service charges, potential energy upgrades, and slower broadband in the area.
