Summary - FLAT 10, CULFORD MANSIONS, CULFORD GARDENS SW3 2SS
3 bed 3 bath Penthouse
Spacious 3-bed penthouse with a large south-facing roof terrace in prime Chelsea..
Large lateral penthouse, 1,588 sqft with lift and porter access
Set on the fifth floor of a red-brick Chelsea mansion, this lateral three-bedroom penthouse offers 1,588 sqft of naturally lit living with lift and porter access. A large reception room and a south-facing roof terrace create a strong entertaining axis, while the kitchen/dining area opens directly onto outdoor space with city views. The principal bedroom benefits from fitted wardrobes and an en suite; a further two double bedrooms include a second en suite and a separate bathroom.
Practical comforts include underfloor heating served by a mains-gas boiler, double glazing, excellent mobile signal and fast broadband — useful for modern family life or a professional household. The building is share-of-freehold with a long lease (204 years remaining), giving ownership stability in a highly sought-after Chelsea location close to Sloane Square, the King’s Road and excellent schools.
Important factors to note: the service charge is very high at £20,000 pa and council tax is also substantial. The building dates from 1900–1929 and the external walls are timber-frame as built with assumed absence of modern cavity insulation; this may impact future maintenance or retrofit costs. The immediate area records very high crime statistics — buyers should factor in security considerations despite the portered entrance.
This penthouse will suit buyers seeking a characterful, spacious Chelsea home with exceptional terrace space and convenient transport links. It also suits those who can accommodate higher running costs and potential fabric upgrades to improve thermal performance.
