This elegant two-bedroom apartment lies on the fourth floor of a handsome period building on one of London’s most distinguished roads. The flat has been recently refurbished by the current owner, and the interiors have been finished with exceptional attention to detail, including beautiful Dinesen Douglas fir wood floors, bespoke door frames and skirting, and underfloor heating with insulation throughout. Light streams in through two original west-facing sash windows in the spacious reception room, which has a chic, neutral finish of fresh white walls and warm timber floors, complemented by bespoke cabinetry and a charming fireplace. The kitchen is well-appointed and tucked just off the main living space. Both bedrooms are generously proportioned and served by two sleek bathrooms with modern fittings and natural tones. The apartment retains a feeling of thoughtful calm throughout, with subtle period details and considered design choices; a lift serves all floors of the building. Lying between Knightbridge, South Kensington and Kensington, the property is moments from the gates of Hyde Park, the building has notable literary history, bearing three blue plaques for Sir Leslie Stephen, Vanessa Bell and Virginia Woolf. The shops and restaurants of Kensington High Street are a short walk away, as are excellent transport links, making this apartment an ideal pied-à-terre or first home in one of London’s most iconic neighbourhoods.
