System-built walls with no assumed insulation; retrofit may be needed

Set on the third floor of a centrally located block on St Martins Lane, this bright two-bedroom flat offers comfortable West End living with excellent rental and lifestyle appeal. The layout includes a spacious reception room, a modern fitted kitchen, a main bedroom with en suite shower room and a good-sized second bedroom — all presented in neutral, move-in-ready condition. At about 735 sq ft the accommodation feels generous for a central London flat.
The location is the standout feature: Covent Garden amenities, theatres, restaurants and transport links are all on the doorstep, making this a strong option for short-term lets, professional tenants or buyers who want immediate access to the West End. The property benefits from a very long lease (970 years) and a modest ground rent (£150), which reduces common leasehold buying concerns.
Buyers should note practical details that affect running and future works. Heating is provided via a community mains-gas scheme and the building’s walls are system-built with no assumed added insulation; double glazing was installed before 2002. These factors may influence energy performance and future maintenance or upgrade costs. The wider area is an inner-city, multicultural, student neighbourhood with very high recorded crime levels — typical of major conurbation living close to nightlife and tourist areas.
Overall this flat suits investors or professionals seeking a centrally located, well-presented two-bedroom with clear rental and lifestyle demand. It offers immediate usability with scope for energy and aesthetic improvements if desired, and the long lease and low ground rent are practical positives for purchase and long-term ownership.
