Number 1 Cleveden Crescent occupies the entire first floor of one of the West End’s most impressive blonde sandstone townhouses. 

It’s broad, elegant, and confident. At just over 2,300 square feet, it’s also substantial, the sort of scale that doesn’t appear very often, particularly at first-floor level, and on Cleveden Crescent.

The position is a big part of the story. Elevated above Cleveden Drive, the flat enjoys full, south-facing aspects to the front, with sunlight tracking across the principal rooms from early morning through to the evening. Being double-aspect, the light isn’t fleeting or one-directional, it’s a constant presence throughout the day.

Inside, the proportions are exactly what you’d hope for in a building of this calibre, high ceilings and generous space. 

The current layout works, and the flat is liveable as it stands, but it also invites a different conversation. The internal arrangement lends itself beautifully to reconfiguration, whether that’s opening things up, rebalancing bedroom space, or creating a kitchen and living arrangement that better suits modern living, subject to relevant planning consent. 

This is a home where a new owner can put their own stamp on it, without compromise.

There are four bedrooms, one of which provides access to a small terrace area positioned above the communal entrance. While modest in size, it’s a lovely, unexpected feature, currently home to potted plants and offering a quiet spot to step outside. There is also a private storage cupboard, off the communal entrance hall.

The flat has been owned by the same family for over 55 years. It’s a home that has clearly been loved, lived in, and looked after, but it’s fair to say it now requires upgrading and modernisation.  

Properties of this size, in this position, with this level of flexibility, rarely come to market in the West End, and when they do, they’re usually already fully refurbished. 

Here, you’re starting with the fundamentals: scale, light, outlook, and address.

And then there’s the setting. Cleveden Crescent is rightly admired, not just for the architecture, but for the beautifully maintained residents’ gardens to the front. They create a sense of calm and separation from the city, with open views across to the villas on Cleveden Drive beyond. It’s one of those West End locations that feels both established and special, and it rewards long-term ownership.

To be clear, calling something “rare” is easy. Flats like this make the case for you. A first-floor conversion, over 2,300 square feet, south-facing, double-aspect, with gardens, outlook, and the freedom to reimagine the space, on one of the West End’s most prestigious crescents. There simply isn’t much to compare it to.

This is a home for someone who values proportion over polish, light over trend, and the chance to create something exceptional.
