This is a beautiful basement level flat a 5 minute walk from Earls Court underground station. The price was low compared with similar properties. I'm guessing this was because a few issues with the flat--the main one being near-constant train noise.
There are a few issues which should be noted in the property listing so users can make an informed decision on renting the property:
- There is near-constant physical rumblings and noise from the Underground train line that is immediately adjacent to the property. I believe the trains run almost constantly except from 2-5a. The shaking and noise made it slightly difficult to sleep. Bring earplugs!
- The flat is below ground with decent light in the front room, but no outward facing windows anywhere else.
- The water heater in the first of two showers couldn't be adjusted so the water was either unheated or scalding hot. The property owner said they'd check into this so it should hopefully be an easy fix.
- Make sure to close the first bathroom door whenever using the facilities as it looks like the Nest door camera and second security camera may have some visibility through the front door into the bathroom.
