Set high on the ninth floor, this newly renovated penthouse delivers about 1,664 sq ft of bright, contemporary living with generous reception space and five bedrooms. The open-plan living and dining area with large windows and a south-west aspect invites light and city outlooks, while a modern kitchen, underfloor-heated tiled areas and comfort cooling add day-to-day comfort. Communal areas have been recently redecorated and the block provides 24-hour porterage and lifts.
Practical strengths include newly replaced joinery, wiring and plumbing, plus a long lease (101 years) and useful building services. The apartment’s size and layout suit a family seeking central London living or professionals needing substantial entertaining space and a study/maids room. Excellent mobile and broadband connectivity, and immediate access to Oxford Street, Hyde Park and Marble Arch tube increase convenience.
Buyers should note the material running costs: an annual service charge of about £13,686 and a council tax band that is described as quite expensive. The property sits in a high-crime city centre location, which may affect insurance and security perceptions despite the porterage. The tenure is leasehold with 101 years remaining and ground rent around £300 per year.
Overall this is a stylish, substantial central London penthouse offering turn-key interior finish and strong location benefits, balanced by notably high service charges and inner-city crime levels that should be considered by prospective purchasers.
