Set on Danvers Street with river glimpses toward Cheyne Walk, this lateral three-bedroom apartment combines generous living space and thoughtful period details. The large reception room—divided by an archway to create living and dining zones—opens on to a south-facing balcony, bringing sun into the apartment through large windows. The principal bedroom is particularly large and benefits from an en suite; two further double bedrooms both have fitted wardrobes. A separate family bathroom and a utility/storage cupboard off the hallway complete practical family accommodation.
Ropers Orchard is a portered building with lift access and a private off-street parking space included — a rare convenience in this part of Chelsea. The property sits within easy walking distance of King’s Road shops and riverside walking and cycling along the Thames Path; Sloane Square and South Kensington stations serve multiple Tube lines for wider travel. The flat is offered as a share of freehold with a very long lease.
Buyers should note ongoing costs: an above-average service charge and a small ground rent apply, and local council tax is described as quite expensive. The block dates from the mid 20th century; glazing was installed before 2002 and the building’s solid brick walls are assumed to have no added insulation—both points to consider for energy performance and future maintenance or upgrade work.
This apartment will suit a family or buyer seeking spacious, well-laid-out accommodation in a central Chelsea location with private parking and porterage. It offers immediate comfortable living with scope to improve energy efficiency and personalise finishes over time.
