Set within a handsome late-Victorian red-brick mansion block, this lateral lower-ground apartment offers generous, well-proportioned living across approximately 1,691 sq ft. The double reception room benefits from high ceilings and bay windows that maximise natural light, while a dedicated office nook adds practical flexibility for home working. A principal suite includes a walk-in wardrobe and en suite bathroom; two further double bedrooms and a second bathroom complete the sleeping accommodation.
The finish is contemporary and comfortable: a fully integrated kitchen, underfloor heating throughout and ample built-in storage make the flat ready for immediate occupation or high-quality rental. Residents also benefit from a porter, lift access and easy access to High Street Kensington and Gloucester Road transport links, shops and a wide choice of schools close by.
Buyers should note this is a leasehold property (long lease remaining: 957 years) with a relatively high annual service charge of £8,708 and a council tax described as quite expensive. The accommodation sits on the lower-ground level, which may suit those seeking lateral living but could be less appealing to buyers who prioritise upper-floor views or direct garden access.
The building’s solid brick construction dates from the early 20th century and likely lacks wall insulation, which may be a consideration for those planning major energy-efficiency upgrades. The local area is affluent and cosmopolitan, though recorded crime levels are above average — a factor to weigh alongside the area’s excellent amenities and transport.
