A rare freehold townhouse in the heart of Knightsbridge, this spacious property extends to about 4,094 sq ft across five floors and offers substantial scope for an incoming owner. The house includes five/six bedrooms, four bathrooms plus a guest cloakroom, lift access to every level and gated parking for three to four cars — an exceptional practical pack for central-London living.
The house is offered chain free but is in need of full modernisation. That creates a clear opportunity to reconfigure interiors, upgrade building services and potentially add a further floor (subject to planning) to increase value and usable space. There is also a small garden and an internal garage, useful for storage or conversion depending on plans.
Important factual points: the building dates from the late 1960s/early 1970s and appears to have cavity walls with no known insulation upgrades. Double glazing is present but install date is unknown. Heating is mains gas with boiler and radiators. Council tax is very expensive, and local crime levels are reported above average — factors to consider for budgeting and security planning.
For families or an owner-occupier seeking a prime Knightsbridge address, the location is outstanding — Hyde Park and Harrods are within easy reach and numerous independent schools and amenities surround the property. For buyers with renovation appetite, the house offers both immediate central-London living and clear potential to create a contemporary, high-value residence tailored to personal taste.
