Buying, viewing and fees — Central London, WC1 2QR

How do I book a viewing at 2 bedroom townhouse, Wellington Gardens, Central London, Central London, WC1 2QR?

Use the "Book a viewing" button on this listing to pick a date and time. Your request goes straight to Kensington & Notting Hill Residential, who confirms the slot by email and text — usually within one working day. Accompanied viewings are free and you can request an evening or weekend appointment.

What fees do I pay to rent 2 bedroom townhouse, Wellington Gardens, Central London, Central London, WC1 2QR?

The advertised rent is £1,150 pcm. Under the Tenant Fees Act 2019 letting agents in England cannot charge tenants setup, referencing or renewal fees. You should budget for a holding deposit (up to one week's rent), a tenancy deposit (up to five weeks' rent where annual rent is under £50,000), plus council tax (band D), utilities and contents insurance. Gaffbee never charges buyers or renters a fee.

What happens after my rental application is accepted?

Kensington & Notting Hill Residential takes a holding deposit and starts referencing — right to rent checks, employment and income verification, previous landlord references and a credit check. Once passed, you sign the tenancy agreement, pay the first month's rent and deposit (protected in a government-approved scheme), then collect keys on the move-in date.

Am I eligible to rent this property?

Most landlords look for a combined household income of around 30x the monthly rent (about £34,500 a year here), a UK right to rent, satisfactory references and a clean credit history. A guarantor or advance rent is often accepted if you don't meet the income test — students and first-time renters included.
