Summary - SUTHERLAND HOUSE FLAT 21 MARLOES ROAD LONDON W8 5LG
3 bed 2 bath Flat
Bright family-sized apartment near Kensington High Street and top schools.
Three double bedrooms and two bathrooms in a spacious 1,267 sq ft layout
Set within a handsome period block on Marloes Road, this newly refurbished three-bedroom mansion flat offers bright, well-proportioned living across approximately 1,267 sq ft. High ceilings, wood floors and large windows create an elegant, airy feel; the open-plan kitchen/dining space is arranged for everyday family life and entertaining. The building provides lift access and a porter, and heating plus hot water are included in the service charge for predictable running costs.
The flat is presented to a high standard throughout and benefits from a very long share-of-freehold lease (958 years). Its location is one of the strongest assets: moments from Kensington High Street’s shops, cafes and transport links, and close to several well-regarded independent and state primary schools, making it convenient for family routines and commuting.
Important practical points: the service charge is high at £14,300 per year, reflecting communal services and the community heating scheme. Heating is supplied via the building’s community system, which limits individual control. The block is of solid brick construction (c.1900–1929) and may lack modern cavity insulation, which could affect long-term energy performance and retrofit options.
Overall this property suits buyers seeking a spacious, turn-key Kensington home with period character and concierge-style building services. It offers immediate move-in appeal and long-term security through a substantial lease, but buyers should factor the significant service charge and communal heating arrangement into running cost and retrofit plans.
