A charming two bedroom flat situated on the third floor of classic stucco fronted house in Chelsea.
Property Oracle says ..
This two-bedroom flat located on Old Brompton Road in South Kensington presents a compelling investment opportunity despite requiring modernization. The property’s location is a significant advantage. South Kensington is known for its prestigious reputation, excellent transport links, highly-rated schools such as Bousfield Primary School (rated Outstanding by Ofsted) located within a short distance, and an abundance of shops and amenities. This makes the area highly sought after. However, the property’s interior requires considerable updating, as the photos reveal dated décor, fixtures, and fittings. The absence of a private garden is also a noteworthy factor, common for flats in this area. The kitchen and bathroom, in particular, would benefit from comprehensive renovations to elevate their functionality and aesthetics. The list price of £875,000 should be viewed considering these necessary improvements. While the location justifies the price in the South Kensington market, potential buyers must factor in renovation costs. Ultimately, the property is a solid investment given the location and potential, but prospective buyers need to allocate a budget for substantial renovation and refurbishment. The property represents a chance to create a comfortable and stylish home in a prime London location.
Therefore, we give this property 5 / 10. *Disclaimer: This is our option and does constitute a recommendation or financial advice. Do your own research. *
