A well-presented two-bedroom raised ground floor apartment in a handsome early 20th-century building, offering 617 sqft of practical living space close to Bloomsbury, Oxford Street and major transport hubs. The bright reception room, modern fitted kitchen and attractive bathroom give the flat a ready-to-move-in feel. Two roomy double bedrooms and a tranquil communal terrace add lifestyle appeal for buyers seeking central London convenience.
Practical benefits include a long lease (178 years), share of freehold and recent double glazing. The property is heated by a mains-gas boiler and radiators and sits within a solid brick structure typical of its era. For buyers prioritising location, the flat’s position between Kings Cross, Euston and the West End is a major draw, with fast broadband and excellent mobile signal for working from home.
Buyers should note material considerations: crime levels in the area are recorded as very high, which may affect security and insurance costs. The building’s solid brick walls are assumed to be uninsulated, so energy efficiency could be improved with measures that may be subject to building consent. The dining area retains traditional decorative features and would benefit from modernisation to suit contemporary tastes.
This property will suit first-time buyers or investors looking for a centrally positioned, low-maintenance home with good transport links and long-term tenure security. The apartment’s mix of period character and modern kitchen/bathroom finishes offers immediate comfort and scope to enhance value through targeted upgrades.
