Set across lower ground and ground floors, this two-bedroom apartment in One Kensington Gardens pairs grand proportions with low-maintenance living. High 3.7m ceilings in the reception and large windows give an airy, elegant feel while modern finishes and under-floor heating maintain comfort year-round. The private patio provides an outdoor retreat opposite Kensington Gardens.
Residents benefit from full building services and leisure: 24-hour concierge, valet parking, a 25m indoor pool, spa, sauna, steam room and private treatment rooms — ideal for buyers seeking convenience and well-being without the upkeep of a family house. Comfort cooling and fast broadband suit modern working and entertaining needs.
Practical points are straightforward: the home is leasehold (long lease remaining) with valet parking rather than a private garage, and council tax is very expensive. The accommodation spans ground and lower ground levels, so the lower-ground bedroom and living spaces will receive different daylight levels than the ground-floor principal bedroom. The local crime level is reported as very high for the area, which should be considered alongside the building’s concierge and secure facilities.
Overall this property will suit a buyer looking to downsize into a prestigious, service-led central-London address with substantial communal amenities and a generous internal footprint, while accepting service costs, higher local council tax and the layout implications of split-level accommodation.
