Summary - MATLOCK COURT, 46 FLAT 31 KENSINGTON PARK ROAD LONDON W11 3BS
1 bed 1 bath Flat
Quiet portered flat near Ladbroke Square Gardens — ideal central starter home.
Portered red-brick building on the Ladbroke Estate
A bright, bay-fronted one-bedroom apartment set on the third floor of a sought-after red brick portered building on the Ladbroke Estate. Wooden parquet flooring and a good-sized reception room bring period character and natural light, while fitted wardrobes in the double bedroom add practical storage. The flat offers easy access to Ladbroke Square Gardens and the shops and transport hubs around Notting Hill Gate.
The property is well suited to a first-time buyer or investor seeking a central London pied-à-terre with clear scope to add value through updating. The kitchen and bathroom are smart but not newly fitted; a modest programme of modernisation would refresh the apartment and could improve rental or resale prospects in this desirable postcode.
Buyers should note some practical considerations: the lease has c.81 years remaining, the service charge is approximately £2,800 per year and there is a nominal ground rent of £25. Heating is provided via a community mains-gas scheme and the building is of solid brick construction (no loft insulation assumed), so buyers may want to review long-term maintenance and energy-efficiency plans.
The location is a major asset: secure, portered entry, excellent broadband and mobile signal, nearby independent schools and abundant local amenities and transport links. The area is affluent and cosmopolitan, though local crime statistics are above average, which prospective purchasers should consider when comparing to alternatives.
