This imposing mid-terrace house in Herbert Crescent offers over 5,300 sq ft across six floors, refurbished to a high specification while retaining strong Victorian character. The layout suits a large family or household staff arrangement: a grand drawing room, formal dining room, large principal suite occupying a whole floor, four further en suite bedrooms and a self-contained lower-ground bedroom with kitchenette.
Practical strengths include double glazing installed after 2002, mains gas boiler and radiators, and an EPC rating of C. The property benefits from direct access to Hans Place Gardens (subject to an annual fee) and an exceptionally central location with Knightsbridge and Sloane Street amenities, including Harrods, nearby.
Known considerations are direct and factual: the house sits on a small plot and is a mid-terrace property constructed before 1900 with solid brick walls that likely lack cavity insulation. Council tax is very expensive and local recorded crime levels are very high; these factors should be weighed for family safety planning and running costs. There is also routine maintenance expected in a large period home despite recent refurbishment.
Overall this is a rare, substantial central London house that combines period scale with modernised interiors. It will suit buyers seeking space and proximity to prime retail and schools, and who understand the ongoing costs and management needs of an expansive, centrally located Victorian property.
