Description

This bright, unmodernised studio apartment presents a unique opportunity for renovation within the sought-after Princess Court on Queensway. Located on the sixth floor of an elegant Art Deco mansion block, the property boasts a large bay window that offers stunning views over London and the impressive church across the street. Measuring approximately 347 square feet, the studio includes a spacious reception/bedroom area, a separate kitchen, and a bathroom. The building benefits from a lift and porter service, adding to its appeal. With a 44-year lease remaining, this property is ideally situated just moments from Queensway tube station, as well as a variety of shops and restaurants, including the new Whiteleys development.

Grade CPotential opportunity

Confidence: MEDIUM

This bright, unmodernised studio presents a compelling opportunity for buyers looking to invest in a property with significant potential. Priced at £180,000, which equates to just £559/sqf, this asking price is exceptionally low compared to the local average of £1,200/sqf, making it an attractive acquisition in an area that promises value appreciation.

Although the property requires substantial renovation—evidenced by dated interiors and old fixtures throughout—this presents a blank canvas for future owners. The living area, bedroom, and kitchen all show signs of age, but with a renovation budget estimated between £50,000 and £100,000, there is ample scope to modernise and improve the overall layout and character of the space. The large bay window offers wonderful views, enhancing the appeal of this Art Deco mansion block. However, potential buyers should be aware of the short lease of 44 years, which may impact long-term investment value.

Key opportunities

  • Transform dated interiors into a contemporary living space tailored to modern tastes.
  • Leverage the large bay window to create a bright and inviting atmosphere with stunning views.
  • Enhance the overall layout and functionality, making the most of the studio's generous size.

Key risks

  • Stripped interiors and a £50,000–£100,000 works budget make this a full-gut programme, not a refresh.
