Set over two floors in a handsome stucco-fronted building, this exceptionally large South Kensington duplex combines grand period proportions with modern living. The double reception room showcases high Georgian/Victorian ceilings, parquet floors and ornate detailing, while a separate contemporary kitchen opens onto a private terrace — rare for central London apartments.
The principal suite includes a dressing room and a large bath and shower room; two further double bedrooms (one en suite), a utility room and guest WC complete the layout. At 2,249 sq ft, the apartment offers scope for reconfiguration or bespoke interiors to suit a family or professional household.
Practical considerations are straightforward: the flat is leasehold (long lease remaining), heated by mains gas with boiler and radiators, and benefits from excellent mobile signal. Note the building has secondary glazing and solid brick walls with assumed no insulation — there may be opportunities to improve thermal performance. Broadband speeds in the immediate area are reported very slow.
Location is a major draw: moments from the Natural History Museum, V&A and Hyde Park, with South Kensington station and a wide choice of independent schools and amenities on the doorstep. The neighbourhood is cosmopolitan and lively, with a significant student population and a wealth of shops, restaurants and cultural attractions.
