Summary - 43 SHAFTESBURY GARDENS LONDON NW10 6LJ
2 bed 1 bath Flat
Compact, long-lease flat with parking and excellent transport links for first-time buyers.
Two double bedrooms and separate living room (approx. 613 sq ft)
A compact, practical two-bedroom second-floor apartment close to North Acton and Willesden Junction, offering straightforward city living for a first-time buyer or buy-to-let investor. Set in a modern purpose-built block around communal landscaped grounds, the flat includes one allocated off-street parking space and double glazing. The long lease (approx. 954 years) and chain-free sale make for a simple purchase process.
Internally the layout is conventional: two double bedrooms, a separate kitchen and a sitting room within about 613 sq ft. Gas central heating via boiler and radiators keeps running costs familiar; windows appear double glazed. The block dates from the late 1990s–early 2000s and is generally well maintained, so immediate major works are not evident from the description.
Notable practical considerations: the apartment is small in overall footprint and some rooms would benefit from light modernisation to maximise rental or resale value. The service charge is about £1,800 per year and the area records above-average crime and higher deprivation indices compared with nearby neighbourhoods. These factors affect suitability — particularly for buyers prioritising quiet, low-crime streets.
For the right buyer this flat represents an accessible entry to the NW10 market: close transport links for Central, Overground and Bakerloo connections, nearby schools (including an Outstanding-rated primary), and quick access to Acton amenities. Investors will appreciate the solid rental appeal; first-time buyers will value the long lease and chain-free sale, with scope to add value through modest updates.
