Delightful house with unusually wide lateral layout on a sought-after Chelsea street

Stepping into the house on the ground floor, the entrance lobby leads through to a central staircase hall. The position of the staircase gives the house a wide lateral layout, while an overhead skylight brings down added brightness.

On one side lies a dining room with an ornate fireplace and a broad bay window. On the other side lies a reception room with a French door leading out into the garden. This level also contains a kitchen with separate street access and a bedroom.

The first floor offers a wide reception room, with south-west facing windows that give views over the garden square. This floor also offers a principal bedroom suite, featuring bedroom, bathroom and dressing room.

The second floor contains four more bedrooms, sharing a bathroom, along with a convenient linen cupboard.

This property was constructed in 1920. It has been home to a lawyer, a banker, a circus proprietor, and a company director with aristocratic ancestry.

A much-loved family home, it was acquired in 1951, making it the longest-owned property on the street. The property was decorated in a traditional style in 1954, when rationing limited interior design budgets to £1000. Since then, the house has been beautifully cared for, but now has the opportunity to be transformed into a spacious Chelsea sanctuary.

The house includes a paved rear garden with plenty of space for outdoor dining. Furthermore, the property is set back on a private road with parking outside the frontage.

Residents also have access to the communal gardens directly opposite.
