Set on the third floor of a landmark Westminster building, this well-presented two-bedroom apartment opens onto views of St John’s Gardens. The separate modern kitchen and good-sized reception room make for comfortable city living, while large windows bring generous natural light. The principal bedroom includes an en-suite; a second double and guest bathroom complete practical family-orientated accommodation.
Residents benefit from full concierge and high-spec communal facilities — gym, sauna, plunge pool, treatment rooms and a business suite — plus valet parking, which suit busy professionals and downsizers seeking convenience and security. Transport links are excellent with Westminster, St James’s Park and Victoria stations close by, and central London attractions within easy walking distance.
Important ownership details: the flat is long-leasehold (973 years remaining) but carries a high service charge (£9,000pa), ground rent (£750pa) and Council Tax in Band H, so ongoing costs are significant. The building dates from the 1930s–40s; walls are likely solid brick with no added insulation and the double glazing predates 2002, so thermal upgrades could be beneficial.
Practical considerations: heating is electric underfloor, and main fuel is electricity (no communal system). Local area crime rates are above average for Westminster, so buyers should weigh security preferences despite the 24-hour concierge. Overall this is a polished central London flat offering lifestyle amenities and long-term lease security, best suited to professionals or buyers prioritising location and on-site services over low running costs.
