Set on the top floor of a well-kept Victorian conversion on Askew Road, this one-bedroom flat combines period character with practical modern updates. High ceilings and large windows create a bright open-plan living area, while the double bedroom sits quietly to the rear. A private roof terrace is a rare, usable outdoor space for central London apartment living.
At around 531 sq ft, the layout works well for a first-time buyer or buy-to-let investor seeking a ready-to-move-in property with good natural light. The building benefits from double glazing fitted after 2002, mains gas heating with boiler and radiators, and share of freehold tenure — all positives for running costs and long-term ownership.
Buyers should note a few material considerations: the building’s solid brick walls are assumed to have no insulation, which may affect heating costs and comfort. The area records above-average crime and local deprivation indicators, so check personal priorities and commute links; transport and local amenities are strong, with Shepherd’s Bush shops, cafes and good connections nearby. Chain-free sale offers straightforward purchase potential.
Overall, this flat will suit someone wanting period details and a private terrace in a lively inner-city setting, and who is comfortable with the locality’s social profile and potential insulation/energy improvements.
