Summary - Flat 52 Windmill Court, 52, Mapesbury Road NW2 4JH
1 bed 1 bath Flat
Chain-free sixth-floor flat with balcony and great transport — lease needs urgent attention.
Large 599 sqft one-bedroom apartment with private balcony
This bright one-bedroom apartment occupies the sixth floor of a purpose-built block and offers a large reception room with direct access to a private balcony and expansive views. At around 599 sqft the layout includes a separate kitchen, double bedroom, three-piece bathroom and hallway storage — a comfortable starter home with clear living space and natural light.
Transport is a strong selling point: Kilburn, West Hampstead and Brondesbury stations (Jubilee, Overground and Thameslink links) are within easy reach, making commutes straightforward. Council Tax is low (Band A) and the property is offered chain-free, simplifying a quick purchase for a buyer ready to move.
Buyers should note several material considerations. The lease has 84 years remaining — mortgage lenders may be restrictive and lease extension should be arranged promptly. Annual service charge is approximately £1,658 and ground rent about £10. The building dates from 1950–66; walls are assumed uninsulated and double glazing install date is unknown, so further insulation or energy upgrades may be needed.
The area is described as inner-city cosmopolitan with high crime and pockets of deprivation; prospective buyers should check local conditions and security. Overall, this property suits a first-time buyer seeking good transport links and a roomy one-bedroom flat ready for some investment in lease and energy improvements.
