Tite Street was laid out in 1877. It soon became home to many of Chelsea’s cultural figures, with celebrated residents including the writer Oscar Wilde and the painters Augustus John, James McNeill Whistler and John Singer Sargent. This property was home to the celebrated physician Lord Haden-Guest, with a blue plaque recording the fact.

Today it is a picturesque street leading towards the River Thames, lined with red-brick properties. From here, the restaurants and shops of the King’s Road are close, while Sloane Square underground station is also nearby. In addition, the beautiful surroundings of the Chelsea Physic Garden are a short walk away.
