A rare five-bedroom, ground-floor lateral apartment in Kingston House North, directly south of Kensington Road and moments from Hyde Park. The block offers 24-hour porter service, access to communal gardens and excellent local amenities including Knightsbridge Underground (0.5 miles). The apartment's 2,140 sq ft layout delivers generous reception space, a large kitchen and five bedrooms suited to family living or a high-end rental.
The apartment requires full refurbishment, presenting a clear opportunity to reconfigure finishes, services and insulation to modern standards. The property benefits from triple glazing and a long lease (115 years), but the building’s community heating and assumed solid uninsulated brick walls mean upgrading heating and insulation should be considered during renovation. Council Tax sits in a high band; service and running costs should be checked.
This is a compelling proposition for a family seeking a large, central Kensington home, or for a buyer looking to create a bespoke residence close to top independent schools and cultural amenities. Sold chain-free, the apartment gives immediate scope for a renovation programme to unlock substantial space and location value. Full checks on service charges, lease particulars and any building works are recommended before proceeding.
