Summary - Flat 4, 24 Queensborough Terrace W2 3SS
1 bed 1 bath Flat
Compact period flat with balcony, near Hyde Park and great transport links.
High ceilings and period features throughout
This compact one-bedroom flat in a period conversion sits moments from Hyde Park and Queensway’s amenities. High ceilings, period proportions and a balcony off the bright reception room give the apartment a spacious feel despite its modest footprint. Lift access and a long lease (957 years) add practical convenience and ownership security.
The layout includes a double bedroom with an en suite shower room and a separate, well-equipped kitchen. The flat is heated by electric room heaters rather than a central system — efficient for occasional use but likely to cost more for continuous heating. Walls are solid brick with assumed no insulation, so buyers should expect limited thermal performance unless improvements are made.
Key buying considerations: the property is small at about 361 sq ft and carries an average annual service charge of £1,816. The local area is an inner-city, multicultural neighbourhood with high crime statistics reported; proximity to excellent transport links and plentiful local amenities will appeal to buyers who prioritise location over space. This apartment suits a first-time buyer or city-based professional seeking a central pied-à-terre or a rental investment with strong demand.
Overall, the flat offers notable central-London advantages — period character, high ceilings, balcony and a coveted W2 postcode — but comes with clear trade-offs in size, heating type and local crime levels. Buyers looking to personalise or improve thermal comfort should factor renovation or insulation work into their plans.
