Set on the lower ground floor of a handsome Victorian building in Knightsbridge, this studio delivers compact, well-planned living moments from Hyde Park and Brompton Road. The principal space serves as reception and sleeping area, complemented by a generous kitchen with dining zone and a contemporary bathroom — a comfortable city base or rental opportunity.
Practical strengths include plentiful built-in storage, a spacious walk-in wardrobe and high ceilings that enhance the sense of space. The flat benefits from a long lease (211 years) and no flooding risk. Communal gas heating and average broadband suit most central-London needs; mobile signal is excellent.
Notable costs and constraints are straightforward: the property is leasehold, sold at auction, and carries an average annual service charge of £3,616. The building’s solid brick construction likely lacks cavity insulation; further upgrade work may be required to improve thermal performance and reduce running costs.
This apartment suits a first-time buyer seeking an iconic Knightsbridge address or an investor looking for a centrally located rental. Viewers should be comfortable with an auction sale process and the maintenance realities of a period mid-terrace building.
