Set within a striking white stucco-fronted Grade II listed building, this exceptionally large raised-ground apartment delivers grand period proportions and contemporary fittings across roughly 2,504 sq ft. The reception benefits from over 4m ceiling height and large sash windows with working shutters, creating bright entertaining spaces ideal for family living and hosting. A bespoke Clive Christian kitchen and integrated appliances provide a high-end culinary centrepiece.
Accommodation includes three bedrooms and three bathrooms, arranged to give two principal suites with marble-clad en‑suites and a further guest bedroom and bath near the entrance. Practical features include a utility room with Miele appliances, integrated speakers, air conditioning throughout and a weekday day porter for added convenience and security. The property uses an air-source heat pump and warm-air electric heating.
Buyers should note important constraints: the flat is Grade II listed, which will limit external and certain internal alterations and can complicate restoration works. The EPC rating is D and the building’s solid-brick fabric likely has little or no cavity insulation, which may affect long-term running costs despite modern heating systems. Council tax is described as very expensive and the local crime level is high; these are salient factors for families and those concerned with running costs and security.
Positioned between Mayfair and Notting Hill, Lancaster Gate gives quick access to premium shopping, restaurants and strong transport links via Lancaster Gate and nearby Paddington. The long remaining lease and share of freehold provide ownership security for buyers who want a central, substantial period home with significant character and investment potential, subject to listed-building constraints.
