Set on the first floor of a handsome red‑brick period terrace in South Kensington, this one‑bedroom flat offers elegant proportions and abundant natural light. The open‑plan reception/kitchen is the principal selling feature, with high ceilings, parquet flooring and three floor‑to‑ceiling French doors that open onto a full‑width balcony. At around 575 sq ft the layout is efficient and works well for a single occupant or couple seeking central location and character.
Practical positives include a dedicated utility cupboard with washer and boiler, share of freehold tenure, and excellent transport links from Gloucester Road tube nearby. The area is affluent and well served by cafes, shops, museums and green spaces, making this a convenient city base or lettable pied‑à‑terre in a strong central London postcode.
Buyers should note the property’s period construction: solid brick walls likely lack cavity insulation and heating is via electric storage heaters, which may mean higher energy costs compared with modern central heating. Council tax is described as quite expensive. Outdoor space is limited to the private balcony; there is no private garden. The apartment is presented as well maintained but has scope for cosmetic updating to suit personal taste or rental positioning.
Overall this flat will suit someone prioritising location, light and period detail over garden space and modern heating efficiency. It represents straightforward ownership in a prestigious SW7 address with good rental and resale appeal, provided buyers factor in likely running costs and the modest external space.
