Seventh-floor studio with lift and porterage
Open-plan layout with wood floors and modern décor
Very long lease: c. 992 years (share of freehold)

Community mains-gas heating; potential limited insulation
High local crime levels — factor for resale/rental demand
A bright, seventh-floor studio with a balcony and far-reaching views, set in the heart of Notting Hill Gate. The apartment’s open-plan layout, wood floors and modern finishes suit a compact city lifestyle or a buy-to-let purchase in a well-connected neighbourhood.
Practical strengths include a very long lease (share of freehold with c.992 years remaining), lift access and porterage, fast broadband and excellent mobile signal. Notting Hill Gate and Kensington High Street’s shops, cafes and transport links are only moments away, which makes the flat convenient for commuting and city living.
Be realistic about size and running costs: the property is small at about 333 sq ft and carries an average service charge of £4,000 a year. Heating is via a community mains-gas scheme and the building dates from the 1930s–40s with solid brick walls (no assumed insulation), so energy efficiency may be limited.
This flat will suit a first-time buyer seeking central location and convenience, or an investor after a compact central London studio. It offers immediate move-in readiness with scope to tailor the interior, but budget for above-average service charges and possible future energy upgrades.
