United Kingdom Sotheby’s International Realty is proud to present this exceptional Grade II-listed house that spans an impressive 9,430 sq. ft in South Kensington. With its beautiful stucco façade, the exterior of the building echoes the grandeur beyond. Unfolding over five floors, the house includes a wonderfully planned lower-ground floor and a contemporary loft space.
Entry is to the ground floor, with a large dual-aspect reception room on the left; this room can be separated into a living space and study by neat bi-fold doors as required. At the back of the plan is another sitting room, which overlooks the terrace and has beautifully bespoke cabinetry.
On the lower ground floor, there is a more casual sitting room and a dining room; at the back of the house is a kitchen and breakfast room centred around a large island’ and a utility room lies behind this.
On the first floor sits a grand drawing room and a separate library with a large bay window, while the entire second floor is given over to the principal bedroom suite. The suite includes a generous bedroom, an expansive walk-in dressing room with custom-built joinery and a large bathroom. The other five bedrooms are dotted throughout the third and fourth floors, three of which are ensuite. On the top floor, the space has been transformed into a contemporary gallery, but could easily be converted into another bedroom or reception room.
The house is crowned by a large roof terrace, which has far-reaching views over the rooftops of Kensington and the Royal Albert Hall. Lying on Exhibition Road in South Kensington, the house is a short walk from the Royal Albert Hall, as well as the museums that make South Kensington so famous. Also nearby are some of London’s best restaurants and shops and travel links into the rest of London are excellent.
