A compact one-bedroom apartment on the third floor of a handsome Victorian terrace, this flat looks out over a private garden square in a prime SW3 location. The apartment’s open-plan kitchen/reception, contemporary bedroom with built-in wardrobes and stylish bathroom provide a bright, well-presented living space across c.413 sq ft.
The property is offered with a long lease and share of freehold (approx. 982 years), a real ownership advantage in central London. Excellent mobile signal and fast broadband make the flat well suited to remote working and city living. The building’s period features and tall windows capture the character of Ovington Square while shops, restaurants and green space of Hyde Park are within easy walking distance.
Buyers should note the apartment’s modest size — best suited to singles or couples — and that the main heating is electric with a boiler and radiators, which can be costlier to run than gas. The building’s solid brick construction is typical of its age and is assumed to have no cavity insulation, so refurbishment or upgrading for improved thermal performance is a consideration. Local council tax is expensive and recorded local crime levels are very high, which some buyers will weigh against the location and convenience.
Overall this is a central, characterful pied-à-terre or investment opportunity offering long-lease security and direct access to Chelsea’s shops and transport links, but it requires buyers to accept small living space and potential running-cost or retrofit works.
