Description
The heart of the home is an exceptional open-plan reception, dining and kitchen space extending to over 31 ft in length. Framed by a sweeping bay of full-height windows, the room is flooded with natural light throughout the day, while ornate cornicing and soaring ceilings provide a fitting backdrop to the apartment's more contemporary elements. Herringbone parquet flooring runs underfoot, linking the various living areas and enhancing the sense of scale. The bespoke kitchen is arranged around a substantial island and finished with sleek cabinetry, integrated appliances and stone surfaces, creating a space equally suited to entertaining and everyday living.
Beyond the principal reception room, a separate snug provides a welcome retreat. Ideal as a television room, library or home office, it opens onto a private balcony and offers valuable flexibility within the layout.
Positioned quietly to the rear of the apartment, the principal bedroom enjoys generous proportions and extensive built-in storage. A luxurious ensuite bathroom is finished in marble and features both a freestanding bath and a walk-in shower. Two further double bedrooms are equally well-appointed, each benefitting from fitted wardrobes and their own ensuite bathrooms, making the apartment particularly well suited to families, guests or those seeking a London pied-à-terre with ample accommodation.
Throughout, the apartment has been thoughtfully modernised while preserving the elegance of its period origins. Direct lift access opens into a spacious entrance hall, while comfort cooling, concierge services and extensive built-in storage further enhance day-to-day living. A long lease of approximately 991 years remaining adds further appeal.
South Kensington remains one of London's most enduringly desirable neighbourhoods. From the world-renowned museums and cultural institutions of Exhibition Road to the boutiques, cafés and restaurants that line nearby Thurloe Place and Old Brompton Road, the area offers a lifestyle that is both sophisticated and effortlessly convenient. Kensington Gardens and Hyde Park are within easy walking distance, while Gloucester Road Underground station provides swift connections across London and direct access to Heathrow via the Piccadilly line.
