Summary - 14b, Thurloe Street SW7 2ST
1 bed 1 bath Flat
Rare large SW7 one‑bedroom with 3.6m ceilings, south terrace and communal gardens.
Raised ground-floor one-bedroom apartment, approx. 896–904 sq ft
A rare raised ground‑floor apartment in the heart of South Kensington, this palatial one‑bedroom home delivers grand proportions and authentic period detail. With an impressive 3.6m ceiling height, original cornicing, ceiling rose, two fireplaces and floor‑to‑ceiling bedroom windows with working shutters, the apartment feels more like a classical maisonette than a typical flat. A south‑facing terrace and access to communal gardens add outdoor space rarely found in central London homes.
Measuring approximately 896–904 sq ft, the layout includes a large 20ft reception room, conservatory/breakfast room, separate kitchen, generous 19ft bedroom, bathroom and cloakroom — a comfortable plan for downsizers, pied‑à‑terre buyers or those seeking a characterful central London home. Location is a major draw: moments from Exhibition Road’s museums, cafés and transport links, with several top independent schools nearby.
Practical considerations are straightforward but important. The property is Grade II listed and leasehold — both will affect consent for works and costs. The building is solid‑brick with assumed no wall insulation, and the heating is mains‑gas boiler with radiators. Crime levels are above average locally and the immediate area records indicators of deprivation; buyers should factor these neighbourhood statistics into their decision.
This is an opportunity to own an unusually large, characterful flat in SW7. It will particularly suit buyers who value period features and central convenience and who are prepared to manage listed‑building constraints and potential retrofit or refurbishment to modern standards.
