One-bedroom period flat with private east-facing garden and long lease in Kensington.
Large reception/dining room with tall ceilings and sash windows
Quietly set on the raised ground floor of a handsome stucco-fronted terrace, this one-bedroom apartment offers a rare private east-facing garden in central Kensington. At approximately 617 sq ft the home has generous room proportions for its size: a large reception/dining room and a generous double bedroom. High ceilings and sash-windowed elevations retain period character.
The flat is sold with a long lease (circa 950 years) and a share of freehold, giving long-term security of tenure. It sits moments from Notting Hill Gate and Kensington High Street stations, with easy access to Kensington Palace Green and Hyde Park — ideal for someone downsizing who wants immediate access to central London amenities and green space.
The property requires comprehensive modernisation: the kitchen and bathroom need updating and the building’s solid-brick walls are assumed uninsulated, so thermal improvements are likely if you refurbish. Service charges are around £1,500 pa and council tax is described as expensive — factor these running costs into any purchase decision.
This is a solid period flat with clear upside for someone willing to invest in upgrading: scope to improve energy efficiency, create a contemporary kitchen and reinstate period details. The large private garden is a standout for the area and will appeal to buyers seeking outdoor space in a central location.
