High-ceilinged, two-bedroom flat with modern kitchen and long lease in SW7.
Large reception with >3m ceilings and abundant natural light
Set on a tranquil stretch of Elvaston Place, this spacious two-bedroom apartment occupies the end of a smart Victorian terrace and enjoys windows on three sides for abundant natural light. A dramatic reception room with ceilings in excess of three metres provides a strong sense of volume — ideal for entertaining or creating distinct living and dining zones. The fitted modern kitchen and integrated appliances keep day-to-day living straightforward, while built-in storage and wooden floors add practical elegance.
The principal bedroom includes fitted wardrobes and an en suite bathroom; a second bedroom and family bathroom complete the accommodation. The property benefits from double glazing and is served by a mains gas community heating scheme. Share of freehold tenure with c.955 years remaining offers long-term security, and there is no onward chain, allowing a quicker move.
Location is a major draw: central South Kensington with easy access to Gloucester Road, local shops, restaurants and frequent transport links, plus green space at Hyde Park within walking distance. The apartment’s 1,172 sq ft footprint is generous for SW7 and suits couples, small families or professionals wanting a roomy central London base.
Notable practical points: the building’s solid brick construction likely lacks cavity insulation, and the property sits within a community-heated scheme rather than individual central heating. Service charges average £3,338 annually and council tax is described as quite expensive — factors that should be considered in budgeting. Overall, the flat offers a rare combination of period volume, modern finishes and long lease security in a very affluent, well-connected area.
