Do you have a question about this home or the local area?
In this beautiful and traditionally styled townhouse, we love the luxurious finishes which perfectly match its exclusive location on a charming (and quiet) square right off the King’s Road in Chelsea. With plenty of room for everyone to spread out and lots of great amenities, like the outdoor barbecue and the Sonos sound system, we are sure the whole family will enjoy Rose Water. To top it all off, the kitchen has an AGA cooker that will make it a delight to cook up a family meal.
