Set on Wimpole Street in the heart of Marylebone, this one-bedroom ground-floor apartment offers roomy urban living in a sought-after central location. The open-plan living and dining area features high ceilings, exposed beams and light-wood floors, giving the flat a contemporary industrial character that feels spacious for central London. A separate kitchen, double bedroom with built-in wardrobes and family bathroom complete the practical layout.
Practical comforts include double glazing, mains gas central heating with boiler and radiators, fast broadband and excellent mobile signal. The building benefits from a day porter/caretaker and sits just moments from Marylebone High Street, Regents Park and major tube links (Bond Street 0.3 miles, Oxford Circus 0.4 miles), making it well placed for city life, shops and schools.
There are significant ownership considerations: the lease has around 31 years remaining and ground rent is £958, which could restrict mortgage availability and reduce resale appeal. Prospective buyers should obtain independent legal and mortgage advice and obtain costs for a lease extension before committing. The local crime level is recorded as very high; check local security and insurance implications.
For a buyer who prioritises location, character and convenience and is prepared to address lease and ownership costs, this flat represents a well-located central London home or a short-term pied-a-terre. Those reliant on typical mortgage lending or seeking a long-term, low-running-cost buy should factor in lease-extension and ground-rent costs when assessing value.
