An exceptionally spacious, raised ground‑floor lateral apartment in a portered red‑brick mansion block, this 3 bedroom flat occupies 1,372 sq ft in prime Kensington W8. High ceilings, wooden floors and a bespoke finish create a bright, elegant living and entertaining space. The main bedroom includes an en‑suite and there are two further generous bedrooms. Communal gardens and immediate access to Kensington High Street and Hyde Park add outstanding location value.
The flat is offered as a share of freehold with a long effective lease (963 years), which helps ownership security. Practical features include electric underfloor heating throughout and contemporary fixtures; the building’s Victorian construction provides character but solid brick walls mean limited inherent insulation. Service charges are significant at £8,400 per year and should be budgeted for.
This home will suit families seeking space near top schools and urban amenities, or professionals wanting a polished Kensington base with excellent transport and lifestyle access. Note the local area records above‑average crime and the property’s period construction may call for targeted maintenance or sympathetic upgrades if buyers want improved thermal performance or modern heating alternatives.
Overall, the apartment offers rare lateral proportions and handsome period character in a coveted square, balanced by ongoing service costs and the maintenance considerations typical of a Victorian mansion block.
