Set within an attractive Edwardian mansion block south of Kensington High Street, this fourth-floor apartment delivers nearly 1,500 sq ft of elegant lateral living. High ceilings, large bay windows and two generous reception rooms create a bright, southerly aspect and a feeling of space that will suit family life or pied-à-terre entertaining. The apartment benefits from a porter, lift access and a share of freehold with a very long lease (957 years).
Accommodation includes three well-proportioned bedrooms, a family bathroom and a separate shower room, plus a separate garden. The building’s period character is intact — solid brick construction, original proportions and secondary glazing — offering charm and scope for sensitive updating where desired.
Practical considerations are clear and factual: the property has an EPC rating of D, and the service charge is high at around £10,000 per year. Council tax is also described as quite expensive. The building’s walls are original solid brick with assumed limited insulation, and secondary glazing is fitted rather than full double glazing.
Location is a major selling point: a short walk to Kensington High Street shops and restaurants, close to Holland Park and Kensington Gardens, and within reach of High Street Kensington and Gloucester Road stations. There is a strong local schools offer nearby and excellent broadband and mobile coverage. Note that local crime levels are above average for the area.
