This expansive ground and lower-ground flat in Albert Hall Mansions offers a rare canvas for a family seeking a grand Kensington residence. The property’s 3,880 sqft includes seven bedrooms, two large reception rooms and five bathrooms, with striking period details such as high ceilings, marble flooring, decorative columns and traditional fireplaces.
Set moments from Hyde Park and the museums and restaurants of South Kensington, the location is outstanding for schooling, transport and green space. A long lease (982 years) and fast broadband and mobile signal remove common ownership hurdles and suit modern family life.
The flat requires a complete refurbishment and offers significant scope to reconfigure spaces, upgrade heating and insulation, and create contemporary kitchens and bathrooms. Note the building’s solid brick walls likely lack insulation and the property will need full modernisation to meet current standards.
Practical considerations: the property is leasehold, sits in a busy central location with above-average local crime statistics, and will demand a substantial renovation budget. For a buyer prepared to invest, this is an opportunity to craft a unique, high-value family home in one of London’s most prestigious postcodes.
