Set on the first floor of a striking white-stucco terrace on Hereford Square, this beautifully refurbished apartment pairs period features with contemporary design. The building, part of a Grade II-listed row designed by Thomas Holmes in the mid-19th century, overlooks the residents-only communal gardens, a peaceful green at the heart of South Kensington.


Inside, the apartment has been cleverly redesigned by Banda Property in collaboration with the current owner, with all joinery and cabinetry made bespoke in solid wood. The kitchen, finished in Calacatta Oro Verde marble and fitted with Gaggenau and Miele appliances, opens into a generous living and dining space framed by six tall sash windows. Two balconies lead off the reception, drawing in light and offering quiet views over the square. A bioethanol fireplace and solid-wood herringbone floors lend a natural warmth to the otherwise crisp, contemporary palette.


There are two bedrooms, both ensuite. The principal suite has a walk-in wardrobe and a marble-clad bathroom featuring stone imported from Greece, while the second bedroom includes built-in storage.


Residents enjoy access to Hereford Square’s private gardens, almost an acre of landscaped greenery with a rich history that includes its use as a baseball field during the Second World War. Gloucester Road Underground station is just 0.2 miles away, with the museums, restaurants and boutiques of South Kensington on the doorstep, and the A4/M4 offering a swift route out towards Heathrow and the West.
