A beautifully presented three-bedroom duplex occupying the ground and lower ground floors of a stucco-fronted Grade II listed period building. High ceilings and an ornate fireplace give the principal reception an immediately impressive, airy feel; French doors open directly into the well-maintained private garden square for rare outdoor access in central South Kensington.
The lower-ground bedrooms include a principal suite with ensuite and excellent fitted wardrobes, a second bedroom with built-in storage, a family bathroom and a smaller third room suitable as a guest bedroom or home office. The separate kitchen is practical and the entrance hall benefits from a spacious coat cupboard. Total size is 1,328 sq ft, offering generous proportions for central London living.
Practical notes: the building is listed which can restrict alterations and may complicate some works. The EPC is rated D and the solid-brick construction likely has limited wall insulation, so upgrading thermal efficiency would improve comfort and running costs. Council tax is described as quite expensive.
This share-of-freehold home sits in a highly desirable residential enclave close to South Kensington station and major cultural landmarks. It suits families or professionals seeking classical character, private outdoor space and excellent central transport links, with clear potential to enhance energy performance and personalise interiors subject to listed-consent limitations.
