Drayton Gardens, London, SW10

Set on the second floor of a Grade II-listed red-brick mansion block, this calm, flowing home has been thoughtfully reworked to create generous lateral living with three bedrooms, a study and balconies at either end. The refurbishment has brought a coherence to the property, with parquet flooring, internal Crittall doors and beautifully considered joinery throughout.



The reception room sits to the front of the apartment and spans the width of the property, arranged around tall windows that draw in natural light and leafy views. An imposing fireplace anchors the room, while the adjacent dining area has bespoke shelving and plenty of space for entertaining. French doors open onto a private balcony, giving the room a gentle indoor-outdoor rhythm that works throughout the seasons.



The kitchen is next door to the dining space, which has been completely modernised with integrated appliances, pale cabinetry and a central island that feels both functional and sociable.



Three bedrooms lie along the quieter side of the apartment. The principal bedroom is arranged around a soft bay of windows and has a generous sense of scale, with fitted wardrobes and its own ensuite.



The second bedroom is also ensuite, opening directly onto a private balcony, while the third bedroom is generous in its proportions. A separate study sits between the bedrooms and is ideal for home working or as a small guest room. There is also a family bathroom and a utility room lying neatly along the hallway. The apartment also has air conditioning throughout.



The apartment forms part of a well-established mansion block with a lift and porter. Storage rooms are available by separate agreement, and residents benefit from permit parking. The refurbishment has been completed to a high standard throughout, making the home ready for immediate occupation.



South Kensington itself needs little introduction. Drayton Gardens sits between the village-like streets of Chelsea and the museums and cafés around Old Brompton Road. The neighbourhood is known for its elegant terraces, quiet garden squares and easy access to some of London's best bakeries, restaurants and galleries. Transport links are excellent, with South Kensington and Gloucester Road stations close by and wide, walkable avenues that make the area feel both connected and deeply residential.
