Summary - 31 PALACE STREET LONDON SW1E 5HW
5 bed 3 bath House
Spacious SW1E townhouse near parks and Victoria station.
Five double bedrooms plus study over five floors
Set over five floors in the Birdcage Walk Conservation Area, this substantial Georgian mid-terrace offers generous principal reception rooms, five double bedrooms and a useful study — rare size for central Westminster. High ceilings, sash windows and engineered wood flooring combine period character with contemporary finishes, while a small roof terrace and lower-ground vault add practical outside and storage space.
The layout gives clear separation between living and sleeping accommodation, making the house suitable for a family seeking central London convenience or an investor targeting high-end rental demand. Transport links are excellent — Victoria mainline and underground, Westminster and St James’s Park stations are within easy reach, and both Green Park and St James’s Park provide immediate green space.
Buyers should note material points plainly: the plot is small with external amenity limited to a compact roof terrace and lightwells; council tax is high (Band G); and the property sits in a very high crime area, which may affect security and insurance costs. The building is period (pre-1900) with solid brick walls and internal insulation; double glazing is present but install dates are unknown, so further checks on services and thermal performance are recommended.
Overall this freehold townhouse presents a rare central London footprint (approx. 2,742 sq ft) with strong family accommodation and clear investment potential. It will suit purchasers wanting a well-located period residence who accept limited outdoor space and the costs associated with a prime Westminster address.
