Few places are as synonymous with upscale elegance as South Kensington, and this stylish and light-filled apartment right in the heart of the area will allow you to sample all of its glamour. Walk inside to be greeted by a bright and dazzling open-plan living and dining area, with those huge windows we love. Kick back and relax on the plush sofa and organise delicious dinner gatherings at the dining table. There’s something about the minimalist yet sophisticated décor which is unmistakably London – and of course, the view of the capital’s cityscape outside only contributes to the feeling. The lovely kitchen will make rustling up those family meals a joy, and the surprising vibrancy of colour and design of the bedrooms makes us love this apartment even more. Heading outside, you’ll find yourself in the best possible spot from which to explore this beautiful part of West London – go strolling in Hyde Park, café-hopping in Chelsea or shopping in Harrods.
