This exceptional Phillimore Gardens house combines Victorian presence with contemporary craftsmanship across an unusually large 5,123 sq ft interior. Recently renovated and award-winning, the home offers grand reception rooms, a bespoke Boffi kitchen with professional appliances, lift access and a private garden set on one of central London’s most coveted streets.
A major planning upside is already secured: permission to extend the house underground by a further 3,305 sq ft, creating a potential 8,428 sq ft family residence. The layout currently provides five bedrooms, four bathrooms and generous lateral living space ideal for family life, entertaining and staff accommodation if required.
Buyers should note practical considerations: council tax is very expensive, the property sits in an area with above-average crime, and the solid-brick fabric is assumed to lack insulation (pre-1900 construction). The house is freehold and has excellent broadband and mobile connectivity, with no flooding risk.
Located between Holland Park and Kensington Gardens, the house is close to top private and state schools, high-end shopping and cultural institutions. The combination of an impeccable restoration, underground expansion potential and a super-prime Kensington address will suit established families or buyers seeking a substantial central London pied-à-terre with long-term capital and rental prospects.
