Do you have a question about this home or the local area?
Set along Chelsea Embankment with picture-perfect Thames views, this elegant home pairs riverside calm with city connection. Inside, the living space is rich in charm and detail—think sash windows and a mirrored fireplace that bounces golden light across the room. Mornings are made for coffee overlooking the water, while evenings invite long chats in the sitting room or dinners prepped in the equipped kitchen. With Chelsea Physic Garden around the corner and King’s Road just a short stroll away, this is a home to settle into slowly, and leave reluctantly.

Local guide
About Chelsea
In the 1960s, Chelsea's Kings Road was the stomping ground for the hippest young things in town. Nowadays, the area is more conservative in its reputation - you'll share the immaculate pavements with affluent business people from around the world and plenty of blow-dried ladies of leisure. It attracts this set for good reason - it's very central and the period houses that line the streets are charming. Sloane Square...
