This South Kensington townhouse is definitely one of the largest homes we have had the pleasure to visit — it’s set over eight floors, so it’s sure to provide a palatial-style experience. A roof terrace, two kitchens, three living rooms and walk-in wardrobes the size of a small apartment are just a few of the highlights. We particularly enjoyed the drawing room on the first floor which features a twenty-foot antique tapestry and sleek lacquered wall panels. The cherry on top is the exclusive West London location — not only are you five minutes' walk from the V&A and the Natural History Museum, but you can also see the top of the Royal Albert Hall from the roof terrace.

About Knightsbridge
Opulence is the name of the game in Knightsbridge. This is London at its most grand and lavish: an area where many of your neighbours think nothing of picking up their daily groceries at Harrods and taking their dogs for a walk in Hyde Park before breakfast. Ideally located for exploring many of central London's key sights, Knightsbridge is also a mecca for high-end shopoholics. Thrifty types should look elsewhere!
