Overlooking a quiet, tree-lined garden square, this Victorian apartment brings a welcome dose of calm to one of London's most central neighbourhoods. Soaring ceilings and huge bay windows give the grand reception room a natural brightness, and the characterful eat-in kitchen feels made for a proper home-cooked dinner. Exclusive access to the award-winning communal garden square directly opposite is a perk – a rose-filled retreat with ancient trees. Earl's Court Tube is a few minutes' walk, with Chelsea and South Kensington easily reachable on foot.

Local guide
About Earl's Court
Kensington’s more down-to-earth neighbour, Earl’s Court is a well-rounded base to explore West London – and beyond. Relaxed restaurants, traditional pubs and leafy side streets characterise the neighbourhood. Make sure you visit The Troubadour, an iconic music venue that hosted Jimi Hendrix, Bob Dylan and Joni Mitchell in its prime. You’re more likely to walk in on a lowkey jazz session these days, performed under a decades-old collection of instruments...
