Set within the prestigious Bloomsbury Mansions, this newly refurbished 1,270 sq ft apartment blends period proportions with modern finishes. Originally a three-bedroom, it has been reconfigured into a generous two-bedroom, two-bath home with high ceilings, large windows and an airy open-plan reception ideal for entertaining or relaxed city living.
Practical conveniences include an allocated underground parking space, day porter/concierge, exclusive residents’ gym, lift access and secure communal areas. The long lease (approx. 971 years) and chain-free sale make the purchase straightforward; excellent central transport links place Russell Square, King’s Cross, the British Museum and the West End on your doorstep.
Notable costs and considerations are explicit: a relatively high service charge (£7,500 pa) and substantial ground rent (£700 pa), plus quite expensive council tax banding. The building dates from the 1930s–40s, with double glazing installed before 2002 and cavity walls assumed without added insulation — buyers seeking maximum energy efficiency may consider further upgrades.
This apartment will suit buyers wanting a large central London home with character and concierge services — attractive to professional couples, downsizers seeking central convenience, or investors looking for a prime location. It is presented in very good decorative order but note running costs and potential thermal-improvement works if low-energy performance is a priority.
