Period character, private garden and share of freehold near Barnes Bridge station.
742 sq ft two-bedroom ground-floor flat with private west-facing patio garden
Set within a handsome Victorian terrace on Cowley Road, this ground-floor two-bedroom apartment brings period detail, generous proportions and an immediately private west-facing patio garden. The layout of 742 sq ft feels larger than average for the area, with a bright open-plan kitchen/dining room and a front reception featuring original fireplace and shutters. Shared freehold gives long-term control over the building and lower running costs compared with leasehold flats.
The flat will suit first-time buyers seeking immediate move-in comfort with scope to personalise. Wood floors and decorative features are intact, while the compact country-style kitchen and bathroom are well maintained but not new — there’s clear potential to update finishes to suit modern tastes and maximise value. Excellent broadband, mobile signal and very low flood risk make this a practical everyday home.
Be upfront about energy performance: the building has solid brick walls with no known cavity insulation (as built), and the install date of the double glazing is not recorded. These factors may mean future spending to improve thermal efficiency and lower bills. There is one bathroom and a modest storage area off the garden, so buyers needing extensive storage or a second bathroom should factor that in.
Location is a genuine strength — a tree-lined residential street moments from the river and within easy walking distance of Barnes Bridge and Mortlake stations, plus highly regarded local schools and plentiful shops, cafés and transport. For buyers looking to combine period character, outdoor space and sensible long-term ownership, this flat balances immediate comfort with clear renovation upside.
