Summary - 1 OLD HOUSE GARDENS TWICKENHAM TW1 2QB
2 bed 1 bath Apartment
Ground-floor two-bed with communal garden and long lease near the Thames.
Ground-floor two-bedroom apartment, approx. 614 sq ft
A well-presented ground-floor two-bedroom apartment in a peaceful cul-de-sac moments from the Thames towpath and East Twickenham’s cafés and shops. The apartment faces south over well-kept communal gardens and offers direct access onto the lawned rear garden, making outdoor space unusually easy for a flat of this size.
Practical features include a long lease (147 years remaining), no onward chain, double glazing, mains gas central heating with a boiler and radiators, and limited off-street parking. The property totals about 614 sq ft and sits in a low-crime, very affluent area with fast broadband and excellent mobile signal — convenient for remote working and commuting alike.
Local schools are a notable draw: several state and independent primary and secondary options nearby, including an Outstanding-rated primary and secondary. Richmond town centre and the combined station are walkable for a fast, frequent service to London Waterloo, the District line and Overground.
Material points to consider: the building dates from 1930–1949 and the external walls are solid brick with assumed no insulation, which may mean higher heating costs or a future need for insulation works. Service charges average £2,036 per year and there is a single bathroom, which may be a constraint for some buyers.
This apartment will suit families seeking easy access to good schools and outdoor spaces, or professionals wanting a low-maintenance home near transport links and riverside leisure. It also presents straightforward potential for targeted improvements such as thermal upgrades or internal modernisation.
