Property description

Now in need of total refurbishment, this is an elegant ground and lower ground floor maisonette with a private south facing garden and direct access onto the immaculately kept communal gardens. Currently arranged as two flats, once combined, it would make the most wonderful family home.

No 104 Lansdowne Road is a wider than average period building, hence the private garden is one of the largest that backs onto the communal gardens. The accommodation is currently arranged as the main flat on the ground and lower ground floors with 2 reception rooms and 4 bedrooms and a separate bedsitting room flat on the lower ground floor. It could be re-instated as one large flat with very little effort via two places/links (with all the necessary consents).

Situated to the northern end of the street, at the Ladbroke Grove end, the flat is ideally situated for both Notting Hill and Holland Park underground stations on Notting Hill/Holland Park Avenue (central, district & circle lines) and for Ladbroke Grove underground station (circle & hammersmith and city lines). The wonderful shops and restaurants of Westbourne Grove, Portobello Road and Kensington Park Road are also only a short walk away. There are also several bus routes that pass along Ladbroke Grove (228, 42, 452 & 23).
