Set within a quiet Georgian terrace in Chelsea, this two-bedroom flat combines period proportions with contemporary finishes. High ceilings and large windows flood the living space with light, and a private garden offers rare outdoor space for central-London homes. The on-site caretaker and long lease provide practical reassurance for buyers and investors.
The layout suits a couple or small family seeking a central location, or an investor after a long-let London home close to Duke of York Square and Pavilion Road. At about 927 sqft the apartment feels spacious for SW3, but some systems are basic: heating is by electric room heaters and the building’s solid brick construction likely lacks modern cavity insulation.
Practical costs and upkeep are straightforward to budget for: a long 170-year lease and a service charge of approximately £2,500 per year. Council Tax sits in Band F (expensive). These facts, plus the apartment’s period fabric, mean buyers should expect possible future upgrades to heating and insulation to improve comfort and running costs.
