This newly built one-bedroom apartment on the 5th floor offers 570 sq ft of contemporary open-plan living with a private balcony and generous natural light. The development packs high-spec conveniences — a 24-hour concierge, swimming pool, gym, spa facilities and secure off-street parking — that suit a busy central-London lifestyle. The apartment benefits from a very long lease (996 years) and modern building fabric with good thermal performance.
The flat is aimed at buyers seeking a turnkey city base or a central investment: the designer kitchen, premium bathroom finishes and integrated appliances reduce immediate maintenance and furnishing work. Excellent mobile signal and fast broadband support home working; nearby Hyde Park and abundant local amenities add lifestyle appeal. Several well-regarded schools are within reach, increasing long-term desirability.
Buyers should note several material considerations: the property is leasehold with a service charge of £4,200pa and ground rent of £600pa, both above average and important for running-cost calculations. Council tax is above average. The wider area records high crime and significant deprivation indicators — factors to weigh for either owner-occupiers or tenants. The main heating runs via a community scheme; check service arrangements and costs before committing.
Overall, Garrett Mansions delivers a high-spec, low-upkeep urban home with strong amenity-led appeal and an exceptionally long lease. It suits a professional or investor who values central location, on-site facilities and minimal initial refurbishment, provided they accept the higher service charges and local area challenges.
