Set just off Kinnerton Street in Belgravia, this newly refurbished lateral apartment offers bright, contemporary living in a prime central location. The layout includes three double bedrooms, an ensuite marble bathroom, a guest shower room, and an open-plan kitchen flowing into a reception room with wood flooring — a practical plan for family life or city entertaining. The building provides a porter and lift, and Knightsbridge Underground plus Motcomb Street shops are within easy walking distance.
The apartment extends to approximately 1,136 sq ft of well-arranged space, with modern fittings throughout and under-cabinet kitchen lighting. Its position close to Hyde Park, top independent schools and high-end amenities makes it attractive to families seeking central convenience and lifestyle, or to buyers looking for a high-spec pied-à-terre with strong location pedigree.
Buyers should note several material considerations: the property is served by a community heating scheme and was constructed in the late 1960s–1970s, with cavity walls assumed to lack added insulation. The service charge is very high at £14,000 pa and council tax is described as very expensive. Local crime levels are reported as very high — factors that may affect running costs, security perceptions and long-term value for some purchasers.
Overall, this apartment suits buyers prioritising centrally located, turnkey accommodation and excellent local amenities. It offers immediate move-in quality and good lateral proportions, balanced against above-average service costs and local area safety data that should be factored into any decision.
