The open-plan kitchen/living area, skylights and high ceilings create a bright, airy living space, while double glazing and tasteful finishes keep the interior comfortable and modern.

The apartment is well placed for families, with several top independent schools close by and excellent transport links to the wider city. The property lies within a very affluent neighbourhood with plentiful local amenities, cafés and cultural attractions on the doorstep. The 791 sq ft layout offers practical accommodation for daily life and entertaining, with built-in bedroom storage and an attractively finished bathroom.
Important practical notes: the building is Grade II listed, which preserves its architectural character but will restrict external and internal alterations and may complicate some works. The tenure is leasehold with a long unexpired term (957 years), and an above-average service charge of approximately £5,000 per year. Council tax is described as quite expensive. The building’s timber-frame walls are noted as having no assumed insulation, which may affect long-term energy retrofit options.
Overall this apartment will suit buyers seeking a central, characterful home with private garden access and concierge-style conveniences, who accept listed-building constraints and higher running costs in exchange for a prestigious SW7 address.
