Summary - Flat 4, 1 Palace Gate W8 5LS
4 bed 4 bath Penthouse
Large four-bedroom penthouse with terrace and lift access for stylish family living.
Extremely large 2,880 sq ft penthouse with private terrace
Set over a very large 2,880 sq ft plan, this four-bedroom penthouse at Palace Gate marries generous entertaining space with private outdoor living. The apartment benefits from direct lift access, a private terrace overlooking mature parkland, and a high-spec kitchen fitted with Gaggenau appliances. Underfloor heating, air source heat pump/warm air systems and a home automation package provide modern comfort and convenience.
Arranged over multiple levels, the principal suite includes a dressing room and large en suite, while three further bedrooms and four bathrooms give flexibility for family living or long-stay guests. High ceilings, abundant natural light and bespoke walnut joinery create a refined, apartment-scale home in an inner-city, very affluent neighbourhood close to top independent and state schools.
Important practical points: the property is leasehold with a very long lease remaining (978 years). Ongoing costs are significant — an annual service charge of £20,000 and very expensive council tax — and heating runs primarily on electricity (air source heat pump/warm air). Buyers should note glazing install dates are unknown and the building’s maintenance and running costs should be reviewed.
This penthouse will suit buyers seeking a high-spec, central London residence with generous internal space and private outdoor terrace. It offers immediate lifestyle appeal but also carries material running costs that should be factored into ownership budgets.
