Summary - 36 EGERTON CRESCENT LONDON SW3 2EB
5 bed 4 bath House
Spacious historic family home in Knightsbridge with commanding crescent views.
Grade II listed Georgian crescent house with grand period detailing
A rare Grade II listed Georgian crescent house arranged over lower ground to third floors, this substantial freehold residence offers grand period proportions and direct westerly views across the Crescent Garden. The principal reception occupies the entire first floor with 3.4m ceilings, ornate cornicing, original mouldings, a working fireplace and a private balcony — ideal for formal entertaining and relaxed family living. The principal suite takes the entire second floor, with three further bedrooms above and a fifth bedroom with en suite on the lower ground level, giving flexible family accommodation and clear scope for staff or guest quarters.
The house is large (approx. 4,122 sq ft) and benefits from a fitted kitchen with breakfast station, a separate dining hall, a quiet study, guest cloakrooms, substantial loft storage and rear garden access from two levels. Practical features include double glazing fitted since 2002, mains gas boiler and radiators, excellent mobile signal and fast broadband — helpful for modern domestic and home-working needs.
Buyers should note material constraints: its Grade II listed status will restrict alterations and require listed-building consent for many works, potentially increasing renovation costs and lead times. The property is of solid brick construction with no assumed cavity insulation and will likely benefit from sensitive energy-efficiency improvements. The terrace sits in an area with very high recorded crime rates, and the rear plot is small relative to the house’s size, which limits expansive outdoor landscaping.
Positioned in the heart of Knightsbridge/Chelsea, the house sits moments from museums, parks and high-end amenities, with top-rated primary and independent schools nearby. This is a trophy family home for buyers seeking historic character, generous entertaining spaces and a prime central London address, accepting the practicalities of a listed, older fabric and limited garden depth.
