Set on the raised ground floor of an elegant period terrace on Kensington Park Gardens, this one-bedroom apartment combines generous reception space with original architectural detail. High ceilings, wide-plank floors and tall sash windows flood the principal rooms with light and frame views across mature communal gardens, creating a calm central-London retreat. The reception and dining areas are large enough for formal entertaining and daily living.
The apartment benefits from direct access to Stanley Gardens South and the right to apply for access to Ladbroke Square Gardens, a rare amenity that significantly enhances lifestyle and long-term resale prospects. At about 749 sq ft the layout includes a well-planned kitchen with storage, a front bedroom with built-in cupboards and a bathroom tucked conveniently close by. Tenure is share of freehold with an average annual service charge of circa £2,000.
Buyers should note a few practical points: the building dates from the 1930s–40s and walls are assumed to be solid brick with no built-in insulation, and the windows have secondary rather than full double glazing. Heating is a mains-gas boiler with radiators. Council Tax is high (Band F) and service charges apply. These are typical considerations for a character apartment in a conservation area and may mean modest upgrade works (insulation/glazing) for those seeking maximum energy efficiency.
This property suits purchasers prioritising location, period character and garden-square access—whether as a principal residence for a professional couple or a London pied-à-terre. The apartment’s proportions and communal garden rights make it a compelling option for buyers who value space, light and the rare amenity of private square gardens in Notting Hill.
