2 bed flat for sale

Eccleston Square, London SW1V

A dual-aspect maisonette of 1,024 sq ft on the north-west corner of Eccleston Square, occupying the raised ground and first floors of one of only five houses on the square built by Thomas Cubitt in 1842.

The whole of the first floor is a single open-plan reception, lit from both sides by full-height sash windows beneath 11.5 ft ceilings, with pine floors, ornate cornicing and a log-burning stove set into the chimneypiece. A curved wall wraps the staircase and bespoke joinery fills the alcoves. French doors at the front open onto a private balcony above the garden square; at the rear, the kitchen opens onto a Juliet balcony.

Both bedrooms are on the raised ground floor, the principal with fitted wardrobes flanking an original fireplace, the second arranged as a study with a curved built-in desk. The bathroom is lined in marble with a walk-in shower. The roof above is demised with the flat, offering scope subject to consents. Sold with a share of the freehold, 999 years unexpired at a peppercorn, and keyholder access to the private garden square.

Located on one of Pimlico's most prestigious garden squares, this property benefits from a peaceful residential setting while being just moments from the outstanding transport connections of Victoria. Victoria Station (National Rail, Gatwick Express, Underground – Circle, District and Victoria lines) is only a short walk away, providing fast links across London and direct services to the airport. The area is also well served by local bus routes and is within easy reach of the boutiques and restaurants of Belgravia, the River Thames and the vibrant new amenities at Battersea Power Station, making it an exceptionally well‐connected and desirable central London location.
