Belsize Park Gardens, London, Nw3

A substantial ground floor garden apartment extending to approximately 1,623 sq ft (150.87 sq m), occupying the ground floor of an attractive white stucco-fronted period building on Belsize Park Gardens. The property benefits from excellent proportions throughout, together with a private rear garden, considerable scope to extend and renovate subject to the necessary consents. The accommodation is arranged around a spacious entrance hall, leading through to a large 25’ x 16’ reception room at the rear of the property. The reception room has direct access to the private garden, creating a good connection between the principal living space and outside area. Beyond the reception room is the existing kitchen, while the apartment also provides two substantial double bedrooms, two bathrooms and a useful amount of storage. The principal bedroom is particularly generous, measuring approximately 25’6 x 16’, with the second bedroom measuring approximately 18’3 x 11’3. The current layout provides well-proportioned accommodation, although the property is now in need of renovation and modernisation throughout. There is clear potential to reconfigure the existing accommodation to create a more contemporary layout and, subject to the necessary planning permission and freeholder’s consent, the apartment could potentially be converted to provide three bedrooms. There may also be scope to extend the property, subject to the relevant consents. The combination of the substantial footprint, generous ceiling heights, existing garden and lower ground floor position gives the property considerable flexibility for a purchaser looking to undertake a comprehensive refurbishment. The location is particularly well placed for the amenities and open spaces of Belsize Park and the surrounding area. Belsize Park Underground Station is approximately 0.3 miles away, providing access to the Northern Line, while Swiss Cottage Underground Station is approximately 0.6 miles away on the Jubilee Line. Hampstead Heath is approximately 0.6 miles away, with Primrose Hill approximately 0.5 miles away, offering extensive green space close to home. The apartment is also within easy reach of Belsize Village, with its independent shops, cafés and restaurants, while England’s Lane provides a further popular selection of restaurants, cafés, food shops and everyday amenities. The wider range of shops and amenities along Haverstock Hill is also close by, providing a convenient selection of everyday essentials, independent businesses, cafés and restaurants.
