Set on the first floor of a handsome Victorian conversion in prime Notting Hill, this one-bedroom flat offers generous proportions and immediate character. The reception room benefits from nearly 4m ceilings and tall windows that flood the space with light, and a private balcony looks out over the classic streetscape of Clanricarde Gardens. A mezzanine storage level above the kitchen adds practical space without compromising the apartment’s period feel.
At approximately 610 sq ft, the layout balances a large reception, a double bedroom to the rear for quiet, and a contemporary bathroom. The long lease (988 years) and share of freehold provide ownership security uncommon at this price point in the area. Key local amenities — Notting Hill Gate station, Kensington Gardens and Portobello Road — are all within a short walk, making daily life and commuting straightforward.
Buyers should consider the property’s utilities and fabric: heating is by electric room heaters rather than central gas, and the building’s solid brick construction is assumed to lack modern cavity insulation. Council tax is described as expensive, and local crime statistics are above average for the area. These factors can affect running costs and should be factored into budgeting.
This apartment will suit a first-time buyer or buyer seeking a characterful city base with strong location credentials and long-term lease security. It rewards buyers looking to combine period charm with practical living — though those prioritising low running costs or modern heating may need to plan upgrades.
