Set on a quiet cul-de-sac off Brompton Road, this lateral three-bedroom apartment occupies 1,315 sq ft in a handsome 1930s building with direct lift access. High ceilings and large west-facing windows flood the principal rooms with light; the reception, dining room and well-equipped kitchen form a generous, sociable living area ideal for family life and entertaining. The principal bedroom has an en suite, with two further bedrooms providing a home office or children’s rooms and a separate family bathroom.
Practical strengths include resident off-street parking within the large RBKC residents’ zone, an unusually long lease (c.175 years) and no specific flood risk. The building is well placed for Hyde Park, Knightsbridge and Sloane Street’s shops and schools, making daily life straightforward and central conveniences easy to reach.
Buyers should note clear cost considerations: an extremely high service charge of £18,235pa and a separate, quite expensive council tax band will significantly increase monthly outgoings. The property is leasehold with a small ground rent (£200) and the building’s solid-brick construction likely lacks cavity insulation, which may affect heating costs and future retrofit work.
Presented in very good condition and ready to occupy, the apartment suits a family or professional household seeking substantial lateral accommodation in central Chelsea. The bright, adaptable layout offers scope to personalise finishes and improve energy efficiency, while the lift and large entrance hall provide practical, day-to-day convenience.
