A compact top-floor period conversion finished to a modern standard, this two-double-bedroom apartment suits a first-time buyer or buy-to-let investor seeking a long lease in West Hampstead. The well-lit open-plan reception and newly fitted kitchen create a pleasant main living space, while timber-effect floors and built-in storage help maximise usable space in a modest layout.
Tenure is a clear strength: share of freehold with a very long lease (expiry 2981) reduces long-term leasehold risk. The property benefits from a newly fitted shower room, mains gas boiler with radiators, and fast broadband and excellent mobile signal—practical for everyday city living and rental appeal.
Buyers should be aware of material drawbacks. The flat is small at about 608 sq ft and has no private outdoor space; rooms are average for a converted London flat. The EPC is currently band D (58) with modest uplift potential. The building is solid brick and likely uninsulated, so energy-efficiency upgrades could be needed. Service charges are listed as ad hoc, which may mean variable running costs.
Location strengths include quick access to West Hampstead, Kilburn and Queen’s Park amenities and stations (within roughly half a mile), local outstanding schools, and a busy inner-city neighbourhood. However, local crime levels are noted as high and the wider area has indicators of deprivation—consider practical security measures and local context when viewing. Overall, this is a practical, well-presented city flat with secure tenure and scope for modest improvement.
