Located within a beautiful red-brick Victorian building, this bright home in Chelsea is a vision of serenity in one of the city’s most coveted neighbourhoods. Step into the living room to be met by a wall of sunlight streaming in through the large windows and the shuttered French doors leading out to a private balcony. Start mornings off here with your morning cup of tea, taking in views over Chelsea’s rooftops and the National Army Museum (a two-minute walk away). Then catch up on work at the sunny desk space or while away an hour on the large leather sofas, tucking into a good book and feasting some more on the glorious views. When you’re ready to explore, both the boutique-lined King’s Road and the Chelsea Physic Garden are a five-minute walk away, while swanky Sloane Square is a twelve-minute stroll from your door. After a day of seeing the sights, come back home for sunset drinks on the balcony before sitting down to an intimate meal at home. Alternatively, throw your glad rags on for a night out in one of your neighbourhood’s lively restaurants and bars, before retreating to your home's two beautiful bedrooms.

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...
