Set within a grand Art Deco mansion block moments from Hyde Park, this spacious three-bedroom flat occupies roughly 960 sq ft and offers classic period character with contemporary styling. The large reception room floods with light from a generous window and the separate, well-equipped kitchen keeps living and cooking spaces distinct — useful for family life or sharer households.
Practical points include a very long lease (share of freehold) and double glazing, with heating provided by a community mains-gas scheme. The flat will suit buyers wanting a central, well-connected address — Lancaster Gate and Paddington stations are within easy reach, and Queensway’s shops, cafés and restaurants are close by.
Buyers should note the high annual service charge (£12,000) and the area’s recorded very high crime level. The building dates from the 1930s and has solid brick walls with no assumed added cavity insulation, so further improvement works (insulation, modernization of some finishes) could be considered to improve comfort and reduce running costs.
Overall, this property offers rare size and layout for central London — attractive to families or professionals seeking space, proximity to green space and long lease security — but with above-average service costs and some retrofit work likely needed.
