Large double reception room ideal for entertaining and family living

Set within an attractive Edwardian red-brick mansion block in the heart of High Street Kensington, this three-bedroom apartment offers generous lateral living across approximately 1,723 ft². Tall sash windows and high ceilings create bright, open rooms ideal for family life and entertaining. The layout includes a spacious double reception, a separate study, a sizable kitchen, three bedrooms and two bathrooms.
Practical strengths include a very long lease (circa 960 years) and share of freehold, mains gas boiler and fast broadband and excellent mobile signal for home working. The property sits in a very affluent, inner-city neighbourhood close to schools, shops and transport. The communal block appears well maintained and retains strong period character.
Important practical considerations are stated plainly: the service charge is high at £10,500 pa and council tax is described as quite expensive. Recorded local crime levels are high, and the building’s solid-brick, pre-1900 construction is likely to lack modern cavity insulation, so upgrading insulation/energy efficiency could be needed. Buyers should expect some period-property maintenance and potential refurbishment costs to modernise heating, glazing or electrics if required.
This apartment will suit buyers seeking generous, characterful family accommodation in a prime Kensington location who can accommodate the ongoing service and running costs and are comfortable with period maintenance. It also offers attractive long-lease security and scope to personalise the interior while retaining Edwardian features.
