Everything about this home is impressive, even the approach – think red bricks, lofty ceilings and tall sash windows. Refinement is the keyword, with a formal lounge filled with delicate antiques, chic oriental rugs and classical sculptures. The little details like the White Company toiletries in the jet-black shower room take it to the next level and combined with the crushed velvet headboard in the master bedroom gives the feel of a five-star hotel. While Hyde Park is just a hop, skip and a jump away, if you’d like a bit of greenery even closer to home, there’s an impressive communal garden, which feels a world apart from central London. In fact, you’re just a few minutes from the great museums and the bountiful boutiques, cafés and restaurants of Kensington High Street and with the tube station round the corner, you can be in Piccadilly Circus in fifteen minutes.

About South Kensington

South Kensington is probably most famous for being home to some of London’s top museums (The Victoria & Albert Museum, Natural History Museum, and Science Museum) and so you don’t need to wander far to see some of the city’s greatest treasures. World-class Hyde Park is just a stone’s throw away and there are plenty of great bars and cafes on the delightful pedestrianised end of Exhibition Road, packed full...
