A rare opportunity to acquire a substantial two-bedroom flat extending to approximately 1,030 sq ft, set within a well-maintained portered mansion block on the quiet side of Queensway — an unusually peaceful setting given the property's proximity to the heart of central London.
Location
The property is ideally situated just a short walk from Queensway Underground station (Central line, Zone 1) and Bayswater station (District & Circle lines, Zone 1), with Royal Oak (Hammersmith & City and Circle lines, Zone 2) also nearby. Paddington and the Elizabeth line are a short distance beyond. Hyde Park is approximately 1 mile away, and the Porchester Centre — with its gym and swimming facilities — is a stone's throw from the front door.
The Opportunity
Requiring full modernisation, the flat offers significant scope for value enhancement and is particularly attractive to investors, first-time buyers, or international purchasers seeking to create a high-quality asset tailored to their own specification. At approximately 1,030 sq ft, flats of this size within portered mansion blocks in Bayswater very rarely come to market at this price point.
Keenly priced relative to comparable properties in the area, this represents a compelling opportunity to secure strong value with clear potential for capital growth.
Bayswater Regeneration
Positioned in the heart of Bayswater, the property directly benefits from the major regeneration centred around The Whiteley — the landmark redevelopment of the former Whiteleys department store into a mixed-use destination featuring a Six Senses hotel, residences, restaurants, and retail. This ongoing investment is transforming the neighbourhood, with strong expectations of further capital appreciation over the next 2–3 years. This is a rare chance to secure early entry into an improving prime London location at today's pricing.
Key Features
• Approximately 1,030 sq ft (96 sq m)
• South-facing reception room with abundant natural light
• 2 generously sized double bedrooms
• Portered red brick mansion block with lift

• Short walk to Queensway station (Central line, Zone 1)
• 6-minute walk to Bayswater station (Zone 1)
• -1 mile from Hyde Park
• Competitively priced relative to local comparables

Stamp duty calculator provided by The Property Hive is intended to provide an estimate of the stamp duty land tax payable on a residential property purchase in England or Northern Ireland. However, the calculator is provided for general information purposes only and should not be relied upon as a substitute for professional legal or tax advice. The actual amount of stamp duty payable may differ from the estimate provided by the calculator, depending on various factors such as the purchase price, the property type, and the buyer's circumstances. Property Hive does not accept any liability for any loss or damage arising from the use of, or reliance upon, the stamp duty calculator. It is recommended that you seek independent legal and tax advice before making any property purchase decisions.
Regulations require that we undertake identity and AML checks, and secure information on the circumstances of your purchase in line with our obligations to verify your identity and complete Customer Due diligence as part of you agreeing any offer with our client. These are dictated by regulation and enforced by trading standards. Whilst we retain responsibility for ensuring checks are carried out correctly and for ongoing monitoring, the initial checks are carried out on our behalf by Lifetime Legal who will contact you once you have agreed to instruct us in your sale or made an offer on a property you wish to buy that is provisionally agreeable to our client.
We have looked to provide benefits alongside undertaking these checks to ensure this is not an additional cost to you. These include complementary Lifetime Legal membership for 3 months, and where you use Chancellors Conveyancing services we have also arranged for this cost to include the AML/ Customer due diligence cost your solicitor would normally charge you for their regulated required checks. The cost of these checks is £80 plus VAT (£96 inc VAT), which covers the cost of obtaining relevant data and any manual checks and monitoring which might be required. This fee is paid in advance, directly to Lifetime Legal and is non-refundable.
