This immaculate 3-bedroom apartment occupies the fourth floor of a handsome Georgian Revival building on Kensington High Street, refurbished to deliver contemporary comfort across 1,505 sq ft. The semi open-plan kitchen, dining and reception room face south, flooding the principal living space with light and offering charming street views — an appealing setting for family life and entertaining.
Three double bedrooms (one en-suite) and generous built-in storage make the layout practical for family routines, home study or guests. Modern comforts include comfort cooling, double glazing and a gas boiler with radiators; the building benefits from a porter and lift access for everyday convenience.
Buyers should note this is a leasehold apartment with approximately 124 years remaining, an above-average service charge (£7,992 pa) and a small ground rent (£200 pa). Council tax is described as very expensive and local crime statistics are above average; these are material considerations for budgeting and lifestyle.
Set on the southern end of Hornton Street, the location places Kensington High Street’s shops, cafes and transport connections close at hand, with Kensington Gardens and Holland Park within easy reach. For families, a good selection of state and independent schools lie nearby. Overall, the property combines period character, contemporary renovation and a prime central location, best suited to buyers prioritising space and finish in a well-connected W8 address.
