Before I post a link, can someone tell me whether this would be a good idea?!

Crikey you could get a mansion in my area for that price!

Objectively putting the price out of my head, its a lovely bright and airy flat. I love the kitchen and the bay windows and original features. It might cost a fortune to heat though!

If you can afford it yes. It looks beautiful and in nice area. If you can afford I am envious

Gorgeous. Expensive! But really lovely.

It's nice but over half a million quid for a 2 bed without any outside space? Bonkers.

I live in zone 3 SW London so I get the London thing but at the moment no way would l spend that sort of money on that type of place.

I think it's lovely.

Won't comment on the price as I have zero knowledge about London prices/locations but the flat itself is lovely Smile.

Lovely flat. Location? Its done up to a high spec and the building seems nice. Assume London?

Ooh actually, one mark off for the lack of bath.

It's lovely! Super bright and looks like a really workable space.

It looks lovely. Nice exterior, very well presented rooms. Only caveat is the bathroom looks a bit squashed up - the toilet and shower are touching?

Yep it is really lovely but it's a flat. But if flats are the only option for that price where you are, then it's definitely a lovely flat.

I like it, but again, would struggle with no kind of outside space. It looks well proportioned and very liveable though.

Thanks all - is the price truly astronomical? First time buyer in London (gulp) and wondering how sensible it is as an investment (we need two bedrooms)

Expensive, but lovely flat.

Noisy upstairs or downstairs would be the only the only con, I can think of.

Leasehold? If so how long left? Otherwise stunning flat and I'm super jealous.

MarikaPepper · 07/04/2017 23:50

120 years left I think!

The actual flat looks lovely.
Is the one above you without carpet ? - That could mean noise issues, as could you get complaints from neighbours below you.
No idea about the area, which is crucial really.
What about parking ?

I'm with others who can't get my head round 1/2 a million for a floor of a terraced house though Shock

Lovely size. Don't know much about house prices in London to know if it's reasonable. Insane for the rest of the country.
Negatives for me: galley kitchen, no bath and single glaze wooden Windows.

Love it! Only questions does it have any outside space and anywhere to park?

Is it freehold / leasehold and if so how many years left on lease? How is upkeep of building (e.g. Roof etc) managed?
