Set on a tree-lined Kempsford Gardens crescent, this 627 sq ft two-bedroom flat combines Georgian character with practical central-London living. The reception room receives good natural light and retains period proportions with high ceilings; a private garden offers outdoor space rare for the area. Transport is excellent with Earl’s Court and West Brompton stations nearby, making central London and Heathrow accessible.
The accommodation is of average overall size and will suit buyers seeking a characterful home or rental investment. Main services are gas-fired central heating with a boiler and radiators. The building dates from before 1900 and appears to have solid brick walls without cavity insulation, so buyers should consider future insulation or energy-efficiency improvements.
Important sale terms are that the property is leasehold (87 years remaining) and will be sold via a Modern Method of Sale at auction. Bidders should note a required buyer’s reservation fee of 4.5% of the price (minimum £6,600) payable in addition to the purchase price, and a mandatory buyer information pack fee of £300. Prospective mortgage buyers should check lender requirements before bidding.
This flat is best for a first-time buyer or investor who values location and period character and is comfortable with a cash or mortgage purchase through a time-limited auction process. The property offers clear refurbishment potential but also practical considerations around lease length and retrofit costs that should be factored into any offer.
