This fourth-floor penthouse is a contemporary, turnkey two-bedroom home in the heart of West Hampstead. Finished in 2024, the apartment offers a bright south-facing open-plan living room that opens onto a private, well-sheltered balcony and uninterrupted rooftop views. The modern kitchen has integrated appliances and an island breakfast bar, making daily living and entertaining straightforward.
Residents benefit from strong building security and amenities: concierge, gated access with fob and intercom, communal roof terrace gardens and an on-site fitness suite. The layout places bedrooms to the quieter north side, one with an en-suite, and provides generous storage—suitable for a professional couple or first-time buyers seeking a low-maintenance move.
Practical considerations are important: the property is leasehold under shared ownership, with a substantial annual service charge (around £3,460). Council tax is above average for the area. Local transport links are excellent (Jubilee, Overground, Thameslink), and broadband and mobile signals are strong, supporting home working and commuting.
Note the wider context when considering purchase: the immediate area records very high crime levels and is described as deprived in some measures. These factors may affect insurance, resale timing and day-to-day feel despite the building’s internal security and modern specification.
