The reception/dining room and eat-in kitchen give flexibility for entertaining and everyday living, while two double bedrooms and two bathrooms suit family routines and guests. Wooden floors, excellent storage and plentiful natural light add to the apartment’s comfortable, lived-in feel.
Practical benefits include a 24-hour porter, lift access and a long share-of-freehold lease (approximately 987 years). The location is a standout: between Harrods and Harvey Nichols, moments from Hyde Park, and within easy reach of Knightsbridge and South Kensington stations. Local independent schools and high-end amenities make this area especially convenient for families.
Buyers should note material running costs and local safety statistics. The service charge is approximately £7,078 p.a. and there is an annual reserve fund contribution of about £6,630. Council tax sits in Band G and will be relatively costly. The building dates from before 1900 with solid brick walls (likely without modern cavity insulation) and is on a community gas/heating scheme.
Overall this is a spacious, well-positioned family apartment with strong lifestyle advantages and long-term security in the form of a very long lease. The property suits buyers prioritising central Knightsbridge living and space over a turnkey, low-cost maintenance outcome.
