Summary - De Vere Gardens, W8 W8 5AW
4 bed 2 bath Terraced
Well-presented four-bedroom townhouse with private courtyard and balconies, moments from Kensington Gardens.
Freehold Victorian mid-terrace in prime Kensington location
Set on the wide, quiet stretch of De Vere Gardens, this well-presented Victorian mid-terrace offers a rare combination of family space and central Kensington convenience. The house extends to about 1,353 sq ft over multiple storeys, with a first-floor reception room, an eat-in kitchen opening onto a private cobbled courtyard with a pond, and two balconies including one off the principal bedroom suite.
The layout is flexible: four bedrooms (three doubles plus a dressing-room/bedroom), two bathrooms (one en suite) and a guest WC provide comfortable family living or city-living for professionals who need room to work from home. The property benefits from direct access via De Vere Mews as well as the main road entrance and is a short walk from Kensington High Street, Gloucester Road transport links and the open spaces of Kensington Gardens.
Buyers should note some running costs and fabric considerations: heating is via electric storage heaters, the walls are assumed to be solid brick with no insulation, and the Energy Performance Certificate is D. There is an average service charge of £1,477 and council tax is very expensive. These are realistic trade-offs for a freehold townhouse in one of London’s most affluent pockets.
This house will suit buyers seeking a ready-to-live-in Kensington base with character and outdoor charm, or city families who prioritise location and school access. It also offers refurbishment potential for buyers who want to improve energy efficiency and personalise period features.
