Set on the second floor of a distinguished Victorian terrace, this well-presented four-bedroom apartment offers generous living space across approximately 1,711 sq ft. High ceilings, large sash windows and herringbone wood flooring create an elegant reception ideal for family life and entertaining. The separate fitted kitchen and three bathrooms (two en suite) support practical daily living for a busy household.
The flat benefits from an on-site lift, excellent natural light and proximity to Hyde Park, top independent schools and South Kensington amenities. Accommodation is arranged to balance shared and private areas, with one particularly large bedroom suitable as a master suite. The building’s period character is retained alongside modern comforts such as central heating via boiler and radiators and secondary glazing.
Important practical points: the property is leasehold with 96 years remaining and attracts a high service charge (£16,750 pa) and notably expensive council tax. The building’s solid brick construction likely lacks cavity insulation and secondary glazing is fitted rather than full double glazing — both worth considering for longer-term running costs and comfort.
This apartment will suit families who prioritise space, natural light and a central South Kensington location, and buyers should plan for the financial commitments of a high service charge and the implications of the remaining lease term.
