Set on the top floor of a handsome Victorian block in Cheyne Gardens, this lateral apartment combines sizable rooms with exceptional outdoor space. The principal reception opens west onto a terrace; a larger roof terrace off the bedroom wing provides elevated views over mature treetops and period roofs — a rare entertaining asset for central Chelsea.
The layout separates entertaining and sleeping wings: bright reception, separate eat-in kitchen, principal bedroom with en-suite, second double bedroom, and a third room currently used as a TV room. Practical additions include a hidden utility area, lift access and a caretaker service, all within a well-regarded Chelsea address close to King’s Road and Battersea Park.
Important considerations: the property is leasehold (approx. 183 years remaining) and pre-1900 construction means solid-brick walls (assumed no cavity insulation) — heating costs may be higher than modern builds. Council tax is noted as quite expensive. The third bedroom is smaller and the flat is on the top floor, so stair/lift access should be checked for ease of use.
Overall this is a substantial central-London apartment that will suit buyers who value outdoor space, period character and a clear split between living and sleeping areas. It will appeal to owner-occupiers seeking a Chelsea base or investors targeting high-demand lettings, but purchasers should budget for ongoing running costs and confirm any service charges and maintenance history prior to offer.
