Set on the third-floor of a handsome Georgian mid-terrace, this two-bedroom apartment delivers nearly 1,000 sq ft of bright, characterful living in the heart of Covent Garden. The accommodation combines period details — high ceilings and sash windows with shutters — with a contemporary finish: bespoke kitchen appliances (Miele, Gaggenau, Smeg), rich wood flooring and built-in speakers in the reception room.
Both double bedrooms are well proportioned and the layout includes a dedicated work-from-home area, making the flat practical for professionals or couples who value space and a central address. The long lease (977 years) provides security for ownership, and the apartment’s size is a rare find for this postcode.
Buyers should note this is a third-floor walk-up in a busy central location, directly opposite theatre venues, so street noise and visitor footfall are part of daily life. The area records very high crime levels and is classified as very deprived, factors to weigh for family buyers. Broadband speeds are reported very slow despite excellent mobile signal.
Practical running costs are material: an average service charge around £3,500 and above-average council tax. The building appears to have solid brick walls with no known insulation and the heating runs on electric-fired boiler and radiators; buyers wanting maximum energy efficiency should budget for upgrades. Overall, the flat offers exceptional central living and scope for cosmetic personalization, best suited to those seeking culture-led city living or central London investment potential.
