Situated on Inverness Terrace, this two-bedroom flat occupies a desirable Bayswater position moments from Hyde Park and excellent transport links. High ceilings and large windows create bright, airy rooms; the 552 sq ft layout includes a separate reception, kitchen and family bathroom. The location offers strong rental demand and long-term capital uplift potential in a prime West London pocket.
The flat requires full modernisation, offering scope for value-adding refurbishment and layout improvement. Note the lease has approximately 59 years remaining — a material drawback that may deter mainstream mortgage lenders and will limit purchase options to cash buyers or specialist finance. Decorative and building works should be factored into any offer.
Other practical considerations: the building is a period mid-terrace with assumed solid brick walls and no inherent outdoor space. Local area amenities and transport are excellent, but crime statistics are higher than average, so buyers should assess security and insurance implications. For investors or experienced refurbishers, the combination of location and refurbishment potential could deliver attractive returns once lease and funding are resolved.
