Set just south of Kensington High Street, this bright upper maisonette occupies 1,420 sq ft over three levels in a handsome period building. The apartment offers a generous 19'2" x 16'4" reception room, a good-sized eat-in kitchen and three bedrooms with three shower/bath rooms — comfortable accommodation for families or professionals. The standout feature is a private, elevated west-facing terrace that enjoys afternoon and evening sun and a tucked-away aspect for outdoor entertaining.
The property benefits from excellent natural light, high ceilings and double glazing. Heating is by mains gas boiler and radiators; the solid brick construction and period character suit buyers seeking classic Kensington living with scope to update. The long lease (c.950 years) provides secure tenure and broad appeal for mortgage lenders and buyers.
This apartment does require renovation and cosmetic updating throughout, which is reflected in the price. Buyers should budget for works and factor in a higher Council Tax (Band G) and local crime levels that are above average. The building has no known flood risk and local transport, schools and amenities are excellent, making the location a strong long-term draw despite the need for refurbishment.
