Campden Hill Road, Kensington, London, W8

Family home with lofty proportions as well as front and rear gardens close to Kensington High Street.

Stepping into the house on the ground floor, the front hall flows through to an impressive reception room. The room offers high ceilings and an east-facing bay window bringing in extra light. Folding doors open onto a sitting room with equally grand proportions, creating a generous space for entertaining. A second bay window at the rear of the house gives access to the terrace, and likewise the study next door.

The lower ground floor features a well-proportioned kitchen with a central island and informal breakfast area. It also features a long dining room with bifolding glass doors opening onto the rear garden. A utility room, a guest WC and additional storage space complete this floor.

The first floor is entirely occupied by the impressive principal bedroom suite. The bedroom lies at the sheltered back of the house, opposite an ensuite bathroom and an unusually large dressing room. The third and fourth floors both feature a pair of bedrooms, two of them ensuite, the other with bathrooms on the nearby landing.

The house has exceptionally generous proportions, with lofty rooms presented in good condition. In addition, it features an internal water-based air conditioning system for the main bedroom and top two bedrooms on the third floor of the house. What’s more, the rooms at the front of the property have attractive views over the neo-Georgian Grade II* listed Kensington Central Library.

The house includes a west-facing rear patio garden with enough space for outdoor eating, and a spacious front garden giving separation from the street. There is also a glazed rear terrace with views over the garden.


Campden Hill Road runs north from Kensington High Street. Its southern half is lined with large houses set back from the street, many with stucco dressings and facades. Historically, the street was home to the novelist Ford Madox Ford and the actor Daniel Day-Lewis.

From here, the restaurants, shops and underground station of Kensington High Street are within easy reach. In addition, the open spaces of both Holland Park & Kensington Gardens are a short walk away.
