Set on the second floor of a period conversion in Maida Vale, this two-bedroom apartment offers bright accommodation with high ceilings and a large reception room. The layout is compact and efficient across approximately 596 sq ft, making it manageable for a first home or rental use. The property is offered chain-free and with 98 years remaining on the lease.
The apartment requires some updating: the kitchen and bathroom show clear age and would benefit from renovation to maximise space and value. Service charge is about £1,000 per year and the property is in council tax band F, so running costs are above average for a flat this size.
Location is a strong practical asset — a short walk from Maida Vale and Warwick Avenue (Bakerloo Line), local shops, cafés and Little Venice. Broadband and mobile signal are excellent, supporting both home working and renting. Note the local area records higher crime statistics and the neighbourhood shows signs of deprivation, which should be weighed alongside the excellent transport links and nearby schools.
Overall this is a compact, well-located London flat with clear potential for value gain through refurbishment. It will suit a first-time buyer prepared to renovate or an investor seeking a straightforward project in a central area.
