Set on the fifth floor of Charter House in the heart of Covent Garden, this large one-bedroom lateral apartment offers bright, flexible living space and secure private parking — a rare central-London combination. The reception room and bedroom benefit from large windows and good natural light, while sleek wooden flooring and a modern fitted kitchen deliver a tidy, contemporary finish.
Practical conveniences include lift access, a day porter and a private underground garage space, ideal for owners who need secure parking in zone 1. The long lease (178 years) gives ownership certainty, and excellent transport links put theatres, restaurants and major stations within an easy walk.
Buyers should note clear cost considerations: an above-average service charge (£6,906) and very high council tax. The building dates from the late 1970s/early 1980s and has double glazing installed before 2002; some buyers may wish to budget for updating or ongoing maintenance. The area records very high crime levels and sits within a very deprived borough classification, which may affect perceptions and insurance or security needs.
This apartment will suit a professional or investor seeking a spacious, well-located central London flat with parking and simple, modern interiors. It offers immediate usability with potential for cosmetic upgrading to increase value or rental appeal, while the strong location keeps demand high despite local social challenges.
