Summary - Elgin Mansions, Maida Vale, W9 W9 1JQ
3 bed 2 bath Apartment
Large Maida Vale flat with two balconies and long lease, needing modernisation.
Spacious 1,065 sq ft second-floor period apartment with high ceilings
Set on the second floor of a handsome red-brick mansion block in Maida Vale, this substantial three-bedroom apartment offers generous rooms, high ceilings and plenty of natural light. The layout currently provides flexible living — two reception rooms, a separate kitchen/dining area and two balconies, one overlooking well-landscaped communal gardens. At about 1,065 sq ft, the apartment feels roomy for a central London flat and benefits from a long lease (964 years) and a share of freehold.
The property requires modernisation throughout, which presents both a clear drawback and an opportunity: cosmetic and system upgrades will be needed to bring kitchens, bathrooms and finishes up to contemporary standards, but successful renovation could substantially increase value and comfort. Heating is mains gas with boiler and radiators; walls are likely solid brick (typical of the period), so insulation and glazing upgrades are potential improvement areas.
Practical running costs to note: service charges are approximately £3,945pa and Council Tax is in the higher band (Band F). The flat is offered with vacant possession, which simplifies refurbishment work. The location is a major strong point — moments from Maida Vale Underground, close to Paddington and the Elizabeth Line, with Paddington Recreation Ground and local cafés and shops on Lauderdale Parade and Castellain Road within easy reach.
This apartment will suit buyers seeking a large period residence near green space who are prepared to invest in modernisation — particularly families wanting nearby schools and commuters wanting excellent transport links. Investors should factor in refurbishment costs and the service charge when modelling returns.
