Set within a distinctive 1930s Art‑Deco development in the heart of St Margarets village, this compact one‑bedroom flat offers a bright, low‑maintenance home or rental in a very affluent, well‑connected neighbourhood. The apartment sits on the first (top) floor and benefits from a south‑facing aspect, large industrial‑style windows and lift access—delivering strong natural light and a sense of space despite the modest footprint.
The accommodation is presented ready to live in, with a modern open‑plan living/kitchen, contemporary shower room, double glazing and an efficient all‑electric heating and air‑conditioning system (air source heat pump/warm air). Practical extras include allocated off‑street parking for one car, a lockable storage cage ideal for bikes and a long lease (114 years remaining). Local amenities, sought‑after schools and riverside/open space are all within easy walking distance, and Richmond station is about a mile away for frequent rail and tube services.
Important practical points: the internal size is small (c. 398 sq ft) and best suited to a single person, couple or a buy‑to‑let investor. The building’s solid brick construction likely lacks cavity insulation (as built), and the property runs entirely on electricity—service charge and ground rent are payable (approx. £1,400 and £500 pa respectively). These are factual running costs to weigh against the convenience of a move‑in ready, low‑maintenance home in a prime village location.
Overall this flat will appeal to first‑time buyers seeking a compact, stylish base near central St Margarets or to investors targeting reliable rental demand in a very low‑crime, high‑education neighbourhood with excellent transport links.
