The interior is neutrally presented with a large reception room, separate fitted kitchen, double bedroom and a separate bathroom. Natural light floods the reception from multiple windows. Outside, the block has maintained communal gardens and on‑site parking, and Hanger Lane tube (Central Line) plus nearby Piccadilly Line access put central London within easy reach.
