A magnificent family apartment in one of the very best mansion buildings in Kensington.
Description
Available for the first time in over 20 years, this magnificent fourth floor apartment has superb lateral space and extends to approximately 262sqm (2,817sqft) with bright far-reaching views across London to the east and west. Upon entering the property, you are met by a wide voluminous entrance hall which in turn allows access to the main focus of the accommodation, the three wonderfully grand rooms along the front of the building which all have large windows, glorious 3.2m ceiling heights, a westerly outlook and excellent natural light. The kitchen/breakfast room and bedrooms are no less impressive with the kitchen and main bedroom in particular having fabulous views down the tree lined Douro Place towards the Queens Tower in the distance. Having been in the same ownership for a number of years, the apartment would now benefit from a refurbishment programme and offers the incoming purchaser the opportunity to create a quite outstanding home.
Location
Kensington Court Gardens is considered one of area’s most prestigious mansion buildings. It has a Victorian red brick architecture and is renowned for providing wide lateral apartments ideal for both family living and grand entertaining. Unusually it is wide but relatively shallow and without any significant neighbouring buildings to the front or rear, allowing far-reaching views from almost every room. It is looked after by a resident porter and has stylish communal areas with a large lift to all floors. Located just to the south of Kensington Gardens/Hyde Park, there are a number of renowned amenities nearby including many shops & restaurants, some of the capital’s most highly regarded schools (such as Thomas’ Prep and the Lycee Francais) and convenient transport links via the underground stations at High Street Kensington (District & Circle Lines), Gloucester Road (Piccadilly, District & Circle Lines) and excellent bus routes into Knightsbridge and the West End.
Square Footage: 2,817 sq ft
Leasehold with approximately 973 years remaining.
