Summary - FLAT 3, DELAHAY HOUSE, 15, CHELSEA EMBANKMENT SW3 4LA
2 bed 2 bath Flat
Spacious period flat with riverside aspect and communal gardens.
South-facing reception with high ceilings and direct Thames views
A raised-ground, two-bedroom apartment on Chelsea Embankment, this 1,172 sq ft period property combines generous proportions with riverside living. The south-facing reception has exceptionally high ceilings, decorative cornicing and wide windows that frame direct views over the Thames, while the separate modern kitchen also takes advantage of the aspect.
The main bedroom benefits from an en-suite, and a spacious second bedroom overlooks the well-kept communal gardens to the rear. Practical strengths include a very long lease (983 years) and share of freehold, making ownership straightforward compared with typical leasehold flats in the area.
Buyers should note a few practical points: the building’s solid brick construction dates from before 1900 and is assumed to have no cavity insulation, and the double-glazing install date is unknown — both can affect thermal performance. Heating is via a community mains-gas scheme, which may mean communal controls and costs. Council tax is described as quite expensive. These are common considerations for period riverside homes and invite straightforward targeted upgrades rather than major structural work.
For someone seeking classic Chelsea character, large reception rooms and river views with long-term tenure security, this flat offers immediate comfort and further potential through selective modernisation.
